platinum blue metallic
Before someone posts links to old pictures, and yells at me for not doing a search,I've already seen Vroomvroom and jukebox's pictures, which are wonderful. However, I'm very interested in seeing what platinum blue looks like at dusk, and also in sun. Also, the stock photo at auto trader is a greyish blue, heavy on the grey side. Is that also platinum blue or some other color in wonky lighting conditions?

For what i've seen is that platinum blue color is look really great in the sun. But haven't see it during night time. It does looks like greyish blue and heavy on the gray on the catalog. In real, it really greyish blue still but heavy on the blue. Hope this help. I did order one with platinum blue and still waiting. Dealer promise to deliver by the end 3rd week of this january

I am awating delivery of mine. I have seen one at dealer. In direct sulight it clearly has the blue tinge. In less light it takes on a grey appearance. I think it looks great.

MCO, sounds like our cars will be on the same boat. Ours was built on 12-17 also Platinum Blue/Ash. The dealer said the boat is due in San Pedro tomorrow.

Roncar,
Interesting! My dealer said the car was due in port on the 25th, but maybe he just didn't want to get me too excited in case there were delays. It usually takes about a week from port to dealer I've been told.
Thanks for the info!
