Is that the paint from the Formula One cars?

Wow. I guess that was just a matter of time. You'd go crazy keeping it shining...

I am still spec KING my car out. I am not sold on Autoexpress' white but I think I will either go SILVER or Burnt Orange. The Burnt Orange is growing on me but I worry that in due course it would look very dated. Cool for 1 week and then I'd say my god what have I done. I plan to drive it to work and I wear a suit. Orange Gallardos are not my cup of tea but massive marketing by Macca maybe selling me.

There are so many type of silver it is dizzying and I wonder what Standard means.

It is the same paint as the F1 cars, i saw it last wednesday when i was at the factory, but was sworn to secrecy as it was to be used in the london showroom for the launch !!!! I dont think it will be an option colour, its not very tough aparantly !!

chrome was in in Dubai as well as Matt. Good and cool idea. Don't know practicality. I'd be worried in doing mine in Chrome. I will take the burnt orange over chrome and silver above all else.

they told me they have to repaint the F1 cars after every or every other race as the paint is not that durable

I was told exactly the same, i personally don't like it

Does anyone know standard v special v elite paint and durability? I think Standard Silver should be fine but the volcano red is very nice.
