Subaru, MAKE THIS HAPPEN!

Very nice color choice BTW, hope you enjoy it.

I'm colorblind but is this yellow the same as the Lamborgini yellow?
I'm not sure but I'd imagine the Lamborgini yellow would be very vibrant and really stand out compared to a school bus yellow.
I'd love to see an FR-S or BRZ with the same Aventador yellow.

Definitely prefer the school bus yellow.

About the only part that is still silver is the engine bay.

School bus yellow with gloss coat. The guy that is doing it does a lot of the local race cars and restorations.

You did what I dreamed of and have been photoshopping for a while now. Kudos

It looks like a factory paint job, all the original decals and build plates in place. Only the engine bay was not completed ... and as it was silver it fits in well. Normally a job like this would cost a minimum of 10,000 .... the whole interior has to be taken out, glass out, doors off, hood and trunk off. There are still some nigglie things to fix: the airbag light is on (scan shows something on LH seat area) and LH window and switch not working properly. Both are probably wires not hooked back up correctly.

I love my WRB and it was a no-brainer when I ordered the car... But it would have been a much harder choice if that yellow was on the catalog! It looks superb!

Congrats (and way to make lemonade out of lemons).

Mr.Jay · 08-07-2013, 03:39 AM

I'm going to try and come on Friday for the test and tune. Will you be there?

Need to see this in person and see what a real yellow twin looks like!

I will be there in the afternoon (about 12:00 or so). Need to get some runs on the new A6's and relearn this car.

Black RPF1's really sets off the yellow nice.

Chee-Hu · 08-07-2013, 11:44 AM

Nice color choice. I'm digging it.
