So what colors have people made their cars aside from the standard colors we can see on the Ultima website (black, yellow, white, green, blue, red, silver)? Do you have pictures?

I saw this one that shows the back end of a gun metal GTR. It looks very nice and I'm wondering if there are full pictures of this car somewhere and if this is one of the colors that are available from the factory.

About body paint. The picture doesn´t shows the real colour of the GTR. I was at the factory and it is light metallic purple, not metal !! cheers

Actually, you're wrong. I was there when that photo was taken. It's a very nice gunmetal grey. Mind you, the guy has done some weird things with the styling of the car. Each to their own though

Indeedy, 'cos I took the picture (glad to see you're keeping tabs on the site too

If I remember correctly, the car was an Audi shade of gunmetal.

Looked great but the chrome badging was a bit errr... naff. The interior had lots of ally/brass - very TVR Tuscan.

Personally, I'm going to either go for a dark metallic blue (painted) or a reflex colour, probably Cascade Blue.

Ok, I found the metallic gray GTR:

There's an interior picture there that shows the chrome/tan theme. Interesting.
