Default Pics (Warning - Not Silver or Grey)

I took some pics today in the fading light. Beatiful sunny day, a bit cool, max temp about 15 C. Not sure the colour is captured all that well, but the seat backs are in the direct light. Needs a proper detailing, and I am probably going to have to have them try again with the 3M chipguard, a bit wrinkly at the top corners of the bonnet. (Please forgive the state of my garage. Long and brutal winter, with spring cleaning next weekend.)


I had perhaps the ultimate compliment today. In stop and go traffic on the highway a truck driver in a big rig wearing a ball cap was yelling down from his perch that he loved the color!

I think I will Zaino the seat backs and console too.

Changes with the light. Sometimes actually has a copper type of glow in the direct sun. Very happy with it.

I saw one recently in the service bay at the local dealer. When they pulled it outside the color came alive. Stunning.
