Another One...

I'm workin on it! :lol

We have basically the harshest lighting environment on earth here. Just straight, killer fluorescent lights. Very hard to get accurate photos. This is...close-ish. The color changes a lot. Outside it's very, very different. With light on it, it's very different along the curves of the body. As the studio would say, it has a lot of "flop" or "travel."

FWIW - the car is Liquid Blue, Alloy Stripes, Dark Energy Upgrade interior, Matte Carbon Lowers, Matte Carbon Wheels and red calipers. It's really, really nice. I was not a fan of the Matte CF wheels on the silver cars I've seen it on. It works very well on this spec.

As much as I want to, I am not digging the Liquid Blue.

Haters gonna hate. :biggrin

Get a 18% gray card (old photographers reference for exposure and color). Then adjust the color temperature of the camera to give a faithful neutral gray.

Alternately you can use Photoshop or other tools to adjust the "white point" of a known white reference [the car looks like a faithful white, but it is not a true white.] Try a piece of printer paper and remember that it is probably 90% reflectance (just as the 18% card is 18%).

That blue is one of my choices but it may be gone in 2018. Other than the matte CF it is close to my choice: very nice! I am having problems with the delivery dealers here in NorCal so I may have to choose the Garagemahal delivery option!!!

Gone !!!! Say it ain't so Ed. What's the scoop?

The blue is not my favorite, but surprisingly those stripes enhance it for me. Love the matte CF. Spaceship.

Not surprisingly, those "old" GTs still hold their own in the same space. These photos of them together are sublime.

awesome car !! They all look great !! congrats to the new owner !!

Signed up delivery dealer in my area snubbed me. I showed up looking like DBK (minus beard & plus 20 years - LOL) & the highest guy I could talk to was the "Internet Manager" who had no clue about the NGT. He did say the owner was getting a NGT this year. He took me to an office where some clerical looking guy took my name & number & said "someone would be in touch". 5 days later no call. They won't ever deliver or service my NGT.

Also, aren't you a little premature in selecting the dealer this far out?

 

[Triheart7]

Haven't seen a color on a NGT that I don't like so far.

 

[GKW05GT]

Identical to what I would order if I ordered today but probably no stripe. Love it!

I don't want to wait until later (yes, I have one year) to select the dealership. It's nice to have a plan.
