Yes, it has LEDs, HIDs, exclusive color, glowing front/rear badges, Blue light up dashboard, light up shifter (AT only) and a numbered plaque/badge. They typically run $2,000+ more than a base model.

No I meant as in is there a notice-able difference between the Argento and Silver Ignition? Looks the same to me from the pics.

It's the angle of the light and the hue of the color. Picture this: Park next to a spot overlooking a body of water and look at the water's reflection in the Argento paint, That's Silver Ignition for you

Wow that looks sky blue in this picture. I almost kind of see a hint of indigo as well. It will be as blue as that or it will look totally opposite and flat. Do you have a picture where it looks more grey-ish blue/silver?

Turns baby blue as the sun goes down. Early morning can seem like Cement color. Under direct light is becomes more silver w/ fine gold flake (Ultramarine/Asphalt flake is rough and coarse for example) and green hues at the edges. Bright spot lit areas almost go white. The paint looks richer and smoother than typical giving it more of finished look where orange peel is harder to spot.

I really don't like Silver cars or Argento at all. I got Silver Ignition, so it's quite a bit different. I love checking it out at different times of day myself.

I'll post a pic and a vid later that gives you the best idea, have to bounce.

it can look flat... I'm not a fan of silver, but I love how my car looks bluish almost all the time. (I'm a baby blue whore)

2500 isn't very "limited" IMO... If it were like 500, there would be more demand for these. But I see the 10 series sitting around at every dealer.

Honestly, the color kills them for me. I love everything about them and would totally pay the extra money for all the added bits, but I don't wanna go rolling around in a baby-blue car.

It's not because it's a girl's car or people will call me a "***" or anything, I just personally don't want a light blue car.
