    Re: R8 Opinion ASAP Please

    I'm not sure if I can change the order anymore but will contact them Monday to see if I can replace it with black and silver siding.

    Ron, jet blue is close to black?

    Either way you can't go wrong. You will have a very special car.

    I am envious AND having sympathetic waiting pains.

    Nick,

    This is Jet Blue. The same color when they showed the concept car.
    Exterior wise my order is identical to this picture.

    I think in black w/ silver it looks menacing, elegant and sporty!

    It is gorgeous! That is going to be one great looking car.

    Christian, don't let your German heritage interfere with your sense of style.

    they don't have a second allocation and can't commit for a date (estimated - end of 2Q of 2008!)

    This car deserves to be a bit flashy.

    If you want a non-flashy sports car, buy a silver/grey/black Porsche.

    Re: R8 Opinion ASAP Please

    Black or blue with the silver siding and black leather interior both work. I'm not a fan of grey or white colors for cars, but of course, just my opinion.
