Picked her up today. I got unlucky with the Contis, but whatever. Dealer didn't remove the plastics per my request, and I drove her straight to my detailer for some PPF and ceramic pro. More pics when I get her back.

Thanks! Actually they put it on at the dealer before I took delivery. It was not a port install option for some reason. Ended up something like $1,600. Glad I did it. It's one of my favourite parts about the car.

Did a trip around some backroads today to explore some of the cool places I've never been to and boy was it worth it. Amazing view, amazing roads, amazing car for the roads, 110% fun

It's definitely an interesting color - sometimes it looks like it has a green-ish tint to me, and then in other pics it looks to be a deeper blue if that makes sense.

Any general trends on that front from your perspective? I am just wondering what it looks like "most" of the time.

Here are three shots of my car in different light. I find that it's a very true blue at night and in the dark. In direct sunlight, it's a metallic, lighter blue. At dusk and in cloudier weather, it has more of a turquoise color. Hope this helps! I love the color and would not change it if I could go back. It gets a ton of compliments!

This is where I don't understand why some people say LBB looks green-ish in some light??? I have never seen mine look anything other than blue. Nice shots by the way.
