If I was ordering right now it would be between carbon black and marina bay blue. Frozen deep grey would be in the mix too, frozen portimao II is so nice though real shame they don't offer it on this beast

I love the Frozen Deep Grey, an amazing colour but my concern would be when the paint gets chipped... At least with the normal glossy paint one can touch it up and it may not show as much!

yeah it's much harder to paint match, I've heard of people doing little touch-ups on frozen paint and you can't tell unless you have your nose up against the paint looking for it, much less visible then little white craters in your paint. Doesn't work as well as with gloss though obviously. Anecdotal reports are that frozen paint is tough which helps too, I've noticed it with mine.

Touring Colour choice

I am ordering a touring but can't seem to decide on the colour combo:

1. Alpine white, Black mags, red calipers, red interior with the carbon mirror caps and carbon interior trim.

2. Carbon black, black/silver mags, black calipers, black interior and carbon mirrors and interior trim.

I saw a sapphire black sedan with red interior in person at the dealership and the red interior looked much better to me in person than online.

For the wagon- Alpine White. If they offered a tan or camel interior the blue and the green would be more tempting. The red is spectacular but looks best with the black interior and I live a part of Florida that is 8 or 9 feet from the Sun and so I don't love black interiors.

How are you liking the G99 with the steel brakes. Is the braking as concerning as the others claim?.

There are a lot off different opinions about the brakes…
Track use oke, CCB is the better option, if you have enough money. Sportive street use is a different matter.
Brake dust on black rims is for me not a problem. The noise…. Fingers crossed…. And I don’t like gold…

The black grey uni, pppppfff beautiful!!!!
