    It is not a color I would choose for MY car, but if YOU'RE happy with it, I'm happy for you.

    Enjoy.

    Can't decide. I think it would look great on a California, but not crazy about this 430.

    I love it, but I can certainly foresee resale issues as it's not for everyone.

    Yes ---- but not on a Ferrari. It's just too gentle and mild for my tastes on a high end sportscar. But, I would love it on the family sedan / SUV :).

    Baby blue might be fine on a baby stroller (or the minivan equivalent), ...
    ... but a snarling, flame belching sports car should have more of a "Danger, Will Robinson" look. :p

    Or a bit of "Stand aside, everyone! I take large steps!" :D

    This is where I get slightly illogical but:

    On a V8 Ferrari? - No!
    On a V12 Ferrari?- Yes!

    (By the same token, I think almost all of the shades of red look good on the V8's, but don't look good on the V12's! - Don't ask!, it's just the way My mind works! :) )

    Exactly what I was thinking. Would look great on a 575 or a 612.

    Quite like it on a Scuderia, won't look nice on a V12 I'd think.

    Wouldn't order a car in that colour though.

    The color looks great on this car, shows the details very well. However, the yellow clashes. Instead, I'd use carbon shields and wheel center caps along with silver calipers.

    Befuddled by this reasoning but you did say your reasoning was illogical, free hall pass for honesty!
