Is Signal Yellow really that orange looking or is that just the camera playing tricks with color?

Having stated this, doesn't she look awesome??

Perhaps that's why this car is a one owner and yet never driven???

So if you didn't order the colour that you did.

Would you have ordered your RS in Signal Yellow??

Personally, and I'm not usually big on yellow, I think the RS looks great in that color and I would have gone for it in that color for sure.

DZL option, which gets all the red bits painted black, plus black wheel option, plus PTS. The $13k is not exact but it well within the ballpark.,

Signal Yellow RS is simply amazing. Now would somebody on this side of the pond PLEASE order one similar so I can hold the smallest hope of making it mine one day?

Given the choice to PTS a new car, would you go for Signal Yellow (as seen in pic) or the Gen 1 RS Orange?
