I agree- they just usually don't photograph as well as bright blues from my experience. I remember seeing the Ultramarine FR-S in person for the first time and my jaw dropped at how dynamic the color is in different lighting (especially direct sunlight).

like OMG this is JUST like the one I've been sketching in my Trapper Keeper!

In a more legal/applicable scenario, maybe this would make sense when some road rage psychopath is after you and yours...

If we're lucky, Will.I.Am will take your new slogan and the rebirthed NSX and make a completely original rebirthed vehicle that is most definitely NOT an NSX...

This is collusion... Patrick you had this answer ready before Torch even posted!

No, I'm the guy who frames a shot and patiently waits for a break in the roaming clueless people without saying anything. I'm not there to ruin anybody's experience. How about you act a little less hostile towards fellow Jalops?

I've been looking for a good lounger for the last month or two... scanning CL for a good Herman Miller Eames replica. That's a pretty good looking seat you found there... I can easily imagine passing out in it post-Thanksgiving feast.

I have to imagine there are less Armani Exchange shirts and little monkey children jumping on R8's?

I actually have a thing for red leather... its just something about burgundy cloth and plastic in a 360 degree scenario that makes me want to drive into an active volcano.

I hate taking pictures at Auto Shows where clueless people walk in front of your camera and pop the hood to discuss horsepower figures and incorrectly describe how turbochargers work. I need to work on getting a press pass.

And now you begin the sweat phase. Your over-compensating body-thermometer continues feeding heat energy to your pits and crotch, which in turn begin seeping moisture faster than you can remove garments. And then the lady wants to check that you haven't got a bomb in your iPhone and the beads sluice from your forehead

How can you not think to yourself: "I'm driving from inside a whale's vagina right now"...?

Cadillac's latest interiors are getting really nice, but they should look back a bit and accept that this is the way to do it. And how about...

What a laughable release of photos.

For the impulsive buyers in Florida who don't want to travel to Texas:

Tom, Tom, Tom... Can I call you Tommy? For a sec? No? Ok, Tom.

This is absolutely not true... any Subaru, Volkswagen, or Toyota I've owned has included DRL but did not have automatic headlights. The fact that DRLs are on does not mean that any lights are illuminated on the rear of the vehicle. DRLs also have a far lower light output than actual headlights.

Eco lights don't let you know that anything is amiss, yet they flash rather distractingly in your direct line of sight on the gauge pod. It's the flashing that's the worst. Flashing lights usually mean something seriously bad is going on, not that you're merely waffling in and out a certain level of fuel consumption.

I noticed that you don't have a bag... for your bag.

Prototype is still a decade away and it likely won't be built in CA due to costs. LA -> SF also isn't very practical due to land ownership issues and geography, but a networked hyperloop would still make the trip possible.
