Bleu for a new coupe

Ciao everybody! Over this past new year holidays i had the most blessed of opportunity to visit and discuss about the all new Mclaren MP4-12C at it's Tokyo showroom. While this car is spectacular in it's own right, you may call me biased indeed but for me...  

Glad you made it out to McLaren...

I haven't made it out to my local McLaren dealer; haven't even seen it despite it being less than 2 miles away. I think the Sapphire black is a great looking color, but the final product on the car is always difficult to visualize; as I fear the car may l... 

You should head down soon bro!

I think you'll have a fabulous time with the service that Mclaren provides! The 3rd chip is the Blue, which is a standard paint for no fee, while the Sapphire Black is considered a special colour, and in Japan costs an extra $4000 when opted for. It is in... 

So you bought

the game for the second time or the CAR for the second time?

Although it seems weird that i dont receive the paint chip at all. Happened in the 1st car purchase too! Funny. Stephen

Now that's interesting...

So what happened to the 1st MP4-12C that you bought then?

I sold it at a loss

The depreciation is crazy in here!

Are you serious?

 
 By: Jester : January 12th, 2012-20:58
Here in my hood, the MP4-12C, even used, is still commanding a small premium, given the waiting list!!!

Hah, wish it was like that in the world of GT!

That way i could sell my rare beauties and get even rarer ones! But some of their prices are insanely high! Damn!

Ahhh...

Ahh, I thought the picture comparing the two colors was between the Sapphire Black and the 4th color chip from the left, my mistake. You are correct, I definitely like the Sapphire Black much more than the other blue in the comparison shot. Will have to m... 

The 4th chip is Azure Blue

 
 By: BluNotte : January 12th, 2012-07:18
Which is SO BAD when i did a comparison with the Sapphire Black that i think it does NOT deserve a posting! I went CRIKEY! Please do bro! And no worries! Glad you enjoyed it too! Stephen

Sure does! [nt]

Hi Stephen, a lot of possibilities and blue (whichever) being a good choice . I had a laugh when you mentioned sapphire black to be blue ... or black .. or whatever ... I always have a discussion with my wife about black and blue: " take the blue shirt" s... 

Unfortunately no

 
 By: BluNotte : January 11th, 2012-17:03
As the 1st model car for the dealership has not arrived. They are just taking orders without you being able to see the car. Hah! It's like me and my family, well used to be until i trained all their eyes to see the difference between true Midnight and Bla...
