    Of the original factory color palette for the GT4, which one do you think it looks best in?

    Personally I never "got" black. I know guys who buy black cars almost exclusively. Aside from the obvious drawbacks....heat, dirt....aesthetically I think black tends to mask the details that make beautiful cars so interesting.

    Blu sera metallic looks perfect IMO. Blu scuro a close second. Pino verde third.

    Jack, I had one that was "Champagne", a little lighter than your GTC, which I liked. The dark blue is nice. Forget red or yellow, not for this shape. I also like dark gray metallic.
    I thought this one was Pino Verde originally. Malcolm

    oh no no. Black reveals shapes, contours & delicate lines. That's why b&w is preferred in photography for subject matter where shapes and patterns are a priority.

    Printed images aren't perceived by the eye in the same way that objects are. To me black obscures surface details even though it may more clearly define overall shapes.

    What's the different between the Rosso corsa and Rosso chiro ? Any comparison between two photos ? I have seen Rosso corsa but not Rosso Chiro .

    Someone had a medium green metallic, like the 70's 911 color of ice mist green, that was superb. And any of the blues look great. OTOH, that maroon looks really nice as well ...
