i love the cocoa interiors, and agree that gt silver matches best with it, but i'm curious whether you find the gt silver to be boring at all, given that it's really just a nice shade of silver, which is ubiquitous. is the gt silver different enough from arctic to make it look special?

GT has more depth than artic, but this is of course just my opinion. I like the exterior silver because of the silver in the interior.


I have owned many cars over the years (3 Porsches, 2 BMWs, 2 jags, 3 Saabs, 4 Lexus's etc) but have never had a silver car, for me, it was an easy decision

mal, I believe I saw YOUR silver today. WOW! I have a silver BMW and I came from a silver Audi A8L and this GT Silver is different in a good way! It seems to have a bit of gray in it which sets it off beautifully.

I have a GT Silver car - REALLY didn't want silver when I bought it but when I saw it it truly was different - mine seems to have a bronze tint when the sun gets it right. Might be the cocoa interior playing tricks though? I love it now and am glad I didn't keep searching for a speed yellow/black C2S......

GT Silver is much more interesting than Arctic IMO.

The car looks fantastic. I am planning on the same combo though I may do the rear console in exterior color instead of leather .

Consider some wood for your interior.

But, but, but......

Eric, reassure me!

I've got some time, and will see it before I order it. Thanks for the head's up.
