Looks amazing. Try not to asphyxiate yourself with too much indoor track mode viewing.

I shared DBK's NGT photos with some friends via text & they mostly came back with one word replies that cracked me up but totally describe people's reaction to an amazing car & color: dope, sweet, niceee, beautiful, insane, crazy, awesome & my favorite - fan-f*#@king-tastic!

I've gotta stop looking at this thread. I keep second guessing myself on not doing a custom color with the 17' I've got on order. I just got too nervous with screwing things up and then being stuck with things.

Nah, you are good. Every color looks fantastic on this car. Really not a bad choice out there.

I agree. If you choose it and love it, then it is the right color.

DBK has already said he will help you & anyone else with custom color process. For a fee! LOL. Not easy for sure!

Man, I have to say, as good as this car looks in here, it looks absolutely amazing outside in the overcast.

Had Ian from Pat Milliken come pick the car up to take over to prepare it for the beating I am going to give it when I get back from Le Mans. I will say, I was very much a skeptic on a $30k but damn that Jimglo is nice. I have never seen a trailer even close to that nice. I get the price now.

Dave, I can only imagine the high you and all the folks who were selected must be having. Just think, of the billion of people on this earth, only 1000 will get this car -- wow and double wow no matter what color is chosen.

Dave.
Well done with your color choice, and giving the kid a ride in the new GT ! That ride may change his life forever. A similar ride I got in 1967 in this GT 500, made me a gearhead for life. It may inspire him to achieve more in school and life, allowing him to experience this great addiction.

Thanks for paying it forward DBK !
