Motoringfile reporting new 07 colors

http://motoringfile.com/2006/06/16/m...red/#more-4928

Nightfire red, laser blue, mellow yellow, lightning blue.

Personally, I don't like metalic paints but to each his own.

From day one when metalic paints came to own, never like it till date. Thats the reasons I refer black till date.

I'm not a big fan of either of those colors but I'm curious to see whatelse they'll be offering color wise.

I had a friend who was trying to sell his EB S but he couldn't get his asking price ..... he said folks ALL used the color as their excuse to dicker the price. You know, something along the lines of "yeah, the price would be good if it wasn't for the color....."

I hope they continue BRG and I can't wait for a better look at nightfire red.

That was my wife's comment, also - she'll stick with her '05 EB.

Color should only be part of the decision about going for an '07... being a new car and all..
