Sadly the garage is full of crap and it would end up getting more damaged in there, I am atleast getting a cover for it though.

There should be a sticker on the n/s inner wing with the paint colour and code. It looks like royal blue to me, a great colour that has a purple flip in bright light.

It is, its royal blue metallic, but sometimes it looks a definate blue, other times its a definate purple and sometimes it even looks a bit grey!

Really nice car mate, good price too cuz looking at it there's a new(ish) hood and it just looks very straight all round.

hey were you the one that was asking an opinion on whether to but this car or not? It looks pretty good, that hood seems in good condition looking at the plastic window, be careful it dont get scratched. Well done mate, hope u enjoy it.
