i don't think it's that bad... i've seen worse in terms of wraps on cups. I am sure there are lambo fans out there that would jump on this thing. In trying to sell my RS, I can tell you, there are plenty of folk that would think this RS is cool and happily buy it.

Side note: I actually like the mk1 decals better vs. the new ones. If I were to get a mk2, it would be a decal delete car for sure.

I like it much better then some of the initial color combos offered. Color is such a personal preference!

I don't think it looks horrible. Then again I like a little bling as evidenced by the yellow exterior and optioned interior of the rumble bee

the color works on this model. And i like the .1 decals, but they are not correct therefore they are not my cup of tea.
This color is great for a sunday drive, but other then that it is crazy.

Give it 10+ years and this color will be very cool for a RS tucked away in a garage.

I wouldn't buy it but I like that its possible (except for the seat belts).

Any idea what the door sills say? It looks like the script ends in an "8."

PS what's the MSRP on this puppy?

lots of leather, PtS, yards of deviated stiching, PCCB's, masses of carbon, this thing must be knocking on $200k even before the dealer installed ****.

Also is this a metallic color?
