Your car looks awesome! I'm not a huge fan of the Soda seats, but then again, I'm probably a good bit older than you. LOVE the soda mirrors and dash though. The color is great, but it seems like a rip off that they charge an extra $500 for it. It can't possibly cost extra for the paint. I guess maybe it costs a little more to do limited paint runs of a special color. The extra $500 does guarantee that your car will be somewhat unique, though and that's a good thing. Overall, very nice car and color combo. I think it would look fantastic with a dark silver, almost ghost, racing or sport stripe.

Does that mean that all of us with different colors are "low class" such as Low Class chili red? Hummmm???

Handsome car! I still love my first gen, but I have to admit, they have come a LONG way with the interiors since then. Very nice.

I take it to mean all other GREYS are ho-hum. I kind of hate that name myself, but the color is really sweet.

I say, if the name fits, wear it

It is a great color. I was not sure about it until I saw one with it in the show room. It has a little bit of a purple haze to it. Very subtle, but noticable. I plan to put a custom burgundy sport stripe on it with silver pin stripes....Pics to come.

I don't see it listed anymore...I last looked a month ago. So this color only lasted about a 6 months.
