I may take you up on that TJ. I'm going to get another couple solid days of grinding in beforehand, though. It's gotta show up SOMETIME on my quest for 20 million dollars.

I'll trade you a fully done up one for an RS4...

I am going white (and stock rims) for the GT because my friend who has the same car in that color. I will likely go with something else for Saloon though (probably some sort of brown or green).

They're white on white now and I'll leave them that way unless someone else has claimed it. Grizz, I know you said you might run a white XKR, I think it was, and if that's so I'll paint the M3. No big deal @ all. The XKR looked great in white. I just hope I don't regret choosing the M5. That thing will go into power on oversteer in a heartbeat even in the higher gears like coming out of the last L turn @ HSR. If I can learn to drive it now I'll be OK.

DB9. So yes, an XKR with a different engine. I don't mind if you want to keep your car white on white, an M3 looks nothing like the Aston Martin so it's not like people will get either white blur mixed up when we pass them.

Both Brads and my Saloon choices are a green of some kind.

I think you should go with a bright yellow.

No, entire GT class should be white, entire saloon class should be green.

Just for the wierd replay photos.

I had planned to use the Camaro in bright yellow but after trying it @ SS7 I decided that I didn't want to throw in the towel @ the first race. Too much frontal area I guess. Actually IMO a real yellow race car is almost always the most visible car on the track. You can pick them out easily @ a distance. The M3 isn't likely to win either but you have to look at the whole picture. I liked the Camaro even though it did the power on oversteer thing quite badly like the M5 but you could get it back under you pretty well. If there are any world beaters in the cars I have available it's not with me @ the wheel.

Don't remember seeing any red ones in testing. But I don't know what Apex has picked, TJ has changed his, and I have no idea what color Nick or Autolexs cars are.

My current choice for GT is lime green with nice purple wheels.

My current Saloon front runner is lavender.

GT - Pearl Gunmetal Grey w/bronze wheels

Saloon - (probably) some variation of Dark Grey

Have I mentioned that I like Grey? (like 100+ of my ~200 car garage are some shade of it)

Hey, at least the man has a theme. I tend toward dark blue myself.

I will run White (including hood) in GT, silver rims, and some form of Brown in Saloon (maybe yellow rims?).

I was thinking along these lines when I went for the color scheme:

I have a matching saloon car in the same scheme, but don't think I'm going to use that one.My car is actually Sublime and Plum Crazy wheels to give my finely engineered German ultimate driving machine a bit of an American muscle flavor.

I shared a few of my rejects if anyone wants to try them out. They are my rejects, not the close seconds or almost rans.
