    Hope this isn't a repost.

    Just saw this listing. Gorgeous car. I thought that they were all blue/white.

    It was my understanding that they were all white with blue --which explains the interior.

    I do like this in black though... very nice.

    My guess is though that if its a repaint, it will devalue it quite a bit.

    Wasn't shumi's mc12 painted black from the factory? This looks like a repaint for sure.

    So is this Shumi's car? They say that this is the only black MC12 in existence.

    No I don't think so. Iirc his has a black interior.





    Edit.
    Can't find any pics of his former car. Might be wrong on it being black anyways.

    Any idea what the ride height is, as it looks awfully low in some of those pics.
    Would make it a difficult car to drive on public roads.

    The black corsa edition shown is aptly named and not meant for the road. I think the road going ones are adjustable though. Even so, you do have to be careful. We had one at the Le Bella Macchine event one year and it had some trouble with a speed bump on the track entrance road.

    What a difference. I've only seen one, blue/white, on Florida plates parked in downtown Millburn, NJ a few years ago. I thought/think it was fugly. Now, in black, I'm starting to feel the love a bit.
