    how many yellow 456 have been built ?

    i know of 099216 from the stieger - turning wheel collection in switzerland. stieger told me it was the only yellow car at that time, special colour for him.
    103969 is yellow with italian plates BM 456 VD
    yesterday i found a thread of another yellow one in saudi arabia on f-chat

    i would be interested to buy a yellow 456 (manual only) but i think they are hard to find.

    Would someone be able to post some photos? I have never seen a photo of a 456 in yellow. :)

    I am beginning to think the 456 looks good in almost any colour.

    Love yellow, a bold choice. Maybe its the photos but it seems to "eat" some of the details. Maybe the lack of reflections?

    I agree that the 360 wheels really update the look! I like 360 wheels a lot! I am a big fan of the 5 spoke wheels where the spokes are fairly thin and svelte.

    The car is looking good! The yellow looks good on a 456 to my eye! It is just a BEAUTIFUL car in general!

    Thanks all for the pics. IMO, the rear wheel well on the 456s is very small looking and the big side panel surrounding the rear wheel makes the rear wheel area small. Would 19s make it look better?

    The wheels are HRE's and they are 20" . In the picture, the car was not lowered, yet. It is now lowered slightly and fits much nicer.
