Wow, another stunning build.

The only faulty picks are the blue wheel and door pulls (that shade is too far from the exterior color to bring anything together).

Any idea where that rolling bundle of joy is heading?

Yeah this is a really beautiful blue. Pearl Blue looks great too. I do know where its going but I was told to keep it anonymous until the new owner decides to make it known.

I think pearl blue will remain the fan favorite.

It is just fun to see the color palette get some use.

Some one recently asked about the antique white. I would love to see that used and then have the LFA parked next to 50s Vette or a Kaiser Darrin painted in that color (like the one I saw at the Chicago auto Show last week)

Looks awesome, but I still need to look at it in proper sunlight to truly see how this color differentiates itself from black where the blue shade would be more apparent.

I think it's a perfect blend of madness......

This color kind of reminds me of the 2006 IS color called "Blue Onyx Pearl" 8P8

Here it is with some lighting...

Is Lapis Lazuli (9H8) even a word ???

Love the awesome color, love the dark wheel color, love the interior too.

I gotta agree about the blue contrast from steering wheel and door pull, but of course this is all personal preference
