    You are right about the orange on television. It looks redder than red and therefore used on the race cars for that effect. Ducati does the same and their Superleggeras all have the orange hue to match the race bikes but unfortunately clashes with the red of my leathers. Had to get a superleggera colored leather suit to match it.

    What colour red did Ferrari use on their F1 cars for the 1,000 race cars?

    I'm spoiled by F-chat, I kept wondering "What, no 599 GTO?!?" :D
    Miller has been putting out some really good content of late, informative, good stuff, no screaming.
    It's about the only Youtube channel I subscribe to.

    The scale of the 812 fender suits the larger painted shields in a way that the 488 or F8 don't have that same amount of space to utilize in a comfortable way.

    A general rule seems to be larger vehicles benefit from darker colors. Also the complicated roof design further benefits from the cloaking of a darker color.

    Speaking of dark colors the stunning Nero 812 GTS seen in post #690 would have been an interesting candidate for a Jay Kay like green interior. For example the Porsche Nephrite Green from the 1997 version of the 993 as seen below>

    Argento Nürburgring and Grigio Ingrid might suit too. Will be interesting to see an example in Azzuro Dino as well.

    Great points. Thanks. I saw a Porsche in San Diego with nephrite green interior. I like bold colors, that's too bold for me!

    Cracking me up Tom BUT I'd pay a premium for TDF...it just works for me personally and is "easy on the eyes".

    GI could be cool.
    Azzurro Dino is a very nice color.

    Yes. No more CdF? I had samples of Marrone Colorado but chickened out.

    I’m at the end of the line. F8 soon. spider to follow.

    You?
