I thought I would like it. But in person it makes the car look plastic.

And just too many different looks and ways to personalise the GT, that makes it almost a crime to pick a stock car

Haha... and I 3rd that! Almost bought the Magno Silver one... but... NO Performance Exhaust!! love the color, love the alcantara interior. Just some poor choices in build spec! Also, it should have come with black wheels instead of the silver, especially with the Magno paint. But thats just my opinion.... Same with the blue one; has yellow/black interior. It just looks weird with the blue. Both those cars have been sitting for a LONG time. Im sure anybody looking for a deal could find one there.

It works with the GTR because of the yellow calipers / "R" symbol in the back. I feel that the blue is a seriously understated choice, the car looks great in it.

Generally speaking, I totally agree. Love the blue.. just this specific car? Not spec'd super well... think why it has been sitting.

I nearly bought a Designo Mauritius Blue G63 with Porcelain white interior when I was shopping for my SUV.. I honestly wish I would have gone that route. Extremely classy!

Yes indeed - IMO Carbon Pack instead of Aero would have given more visual impact and a classier overall look

Interior is very personal - some love black, others hate grey, brown diamond..... the combinations go on

I believe the silver one will look fantastic with this Aero Program
