Thanks for the compliment. thumbup

Afraid I have no pics of the interior. It’s Race Tex interior with yellow stitching and yellow seatbelts. I love it.

It’s this…

My Shark Blue GT4 collected today.
Looks an absolute picture. I’ve ordered Carrara White with Satin Aurum wheels but I am so undecided and tempted to change for lockdown. What colour scheme did you go for on the inside?

Thanks Rich

I know it's a nice problem to have, but I've never in my entire car buying history found picking a colour for a car so damn hard as it is with the GT4! There's just too much choice IMO. I get to a place where I'm finally set, then I see a picture or try another combo and it sways me to think again. There's just too many nice combinations, and that's before you start thinking about the interior and calliper colours. Part of me wishes it was like when I ordered my 1M back in 2011, a choice of 3 external colours (Orange, Black or White) and that was it, no wheel colour choice, even the inside trim/stitch colours were set.

As I said, a nice problem to have though, but damn frustrating. I've been at it for weeks, and TBH I'm still no closer. I'll get my coat.

Second that. Probs the nicest colour you could have in one

Brewster or Underberg are much nicer IMO. From the pictures I've seen, in normal daylight (not under artificial indoor lights) Oak is quite a washed out hue. Brewster and Underberg are both far richer from that spectrum. smile

Thank you I really like it, it's a very bold standout colour in person make sure you are happy with that. I've gone low key with standard plastic dash, standard silver stitching, back belts and harness, carbon trim and yellow wheel marker also the extinguisher is bright red and the harnesses have yellow logos on them, that's enough colour for me.

Thanks for the pics, the Gentian and black looks great! My OCD couldn't let me have the red callipers with the yellow interior, but I've now optioned my own version with red/grey interior. So I think* I have my choice down to 3 (My favourite being Python with black wheels, but II'm not sure I'm brave enough to go for such a marmite colour)...

Thanks Michael, did you go for reversing camera, clubsport etc. Just trying to get the spec right without purring things on it I’ll never use. What made you decide against Aurum wheels, I saw a GT3 in Shark Blue and gold wheels at Oulton Park recently and it looked immense.

I did ask for PTS and Oak green metallic was what I’d have gone for, OPC made enquires but as expected - PTS was not an option for my slot. As such Gentian/Arum/ black callipers, now locked in, delivery in November.

When I finalising the GT4, I was tempted to swap the satin black with Aurum on the crayon but didn't in the end.

And

Thanks guys. Am loving the car so far. 1100 miles in 4 days and it’s loosening up nicely.

Need to drop the Missus off so I can give it a proper good drive and then I’ll be in a better position to give lab opinion on the car. But in the meantime it’s a big thumbs up.
