I've still got a ways before hitting 40.

Most of my overseas travel is visiting family. My grandmother is pushing 80 so any overseas vacations will be to visit her for a while yet.

It is in the inspection booth with the ultra high output lights. It is how they inspect the cars before delivery to the customer. The pics are just my cell phone so imagine what it would look like with a real camera!


As Ultra said it is also as good as it gets. I drove it out of there, across their dirt covered lot (there is construction next door and mud everywhere), down the dust covered road (they have not cleaned up the winter sand yet), across some road construction and then finally home. Although it still looked really good it did not shine like that anymore.

I would say, wash it, put it in the garage, and don't let anyone touch it. Viewing allowed with an escort for a small fee.

The nice part of the tan is that it is a bit darker than what they used before and they kept it to the seat bolsters and a strip around the armrest only. The rest is blacks in various different materials.
I saw the interior of a RS.2 one time and they went overboard with the tan to the point it was way too much. The only thing I would like them to have done was to use the tan stitching they used in some places on the alcantara inserts on the door and back seat.


Nice amount of tan



This is too much tan

I might even like this... [lowers voice so car can't hear even though detached garage] more than Hyperblue. Definitely better than Lava though.
