I know, it really is lovely and it's nothing against the color. There are just so many white GT-Rs around. I would like to try something different. The pearl is not a stock color so it won't match right when the new door(s) go on so a full reshoot will be required. If that wasn't the case, the existing color would be ok, but I can't see reshooting the same color.
The green is a hail mary. It will have to inspire 100% confidence. The safety color, IE, the one that I know works, is a bright red.
