Perfect Blue Questions

[USASS]

I was excited to find this forum. It looks like a great group of guys. I am planning on ordering a 2015 as soon as the price in the states is released. I like the idea of white to go with the stealth look of the car but I can't get past how awesome Perfect Blue is. Two questions:

1) I thought this was not a metallic color but sometimes it appears to have flake in it. Is it metallic?

2) I looked up Peter Perfect expecting to find an Aussie V8 Supercar driver and all I could find was a cartoon. Is Peter Perfect a cartoon?

I think it has a slight metallic in it. You mean Peter Brock right?

Peter Perfect was a nickname given to the legend that is Peter Brock.

Google him, there's plenty of info out there.

Peter Brock makes more sense. I heard the color was named after Peter Perfect and the cartoon was all I saw. I had never seen the cartoon so I don't think it played here. Looked kind of like Speed Racer.

Thanks

Perfect Blue is metallic and it definitely has a flake in it. I have a Perfect Blue SSV and you can see it in bright sunlight. I love the colour even more than the Voodoo Blue VE SS Sportwagon one I had previously which has surprised me.

I am a massive Peter Brock fan and I believe the colour was named Perfect Blue as it is a modern interpretation of the colour of his first race car a Holden 6 powered Austin A30 Sports Sedan (which colour was definitely not metallic).

Go the Perfect Blue. You won't be sorry.

Perfect Blue is a tribute to the HDT VK Formula Blue.

I always thought it was a throwback to the Blue Meanie VK.


EDIT: Damn you VS 5.0, damn you to hell!!! :banstick:

Perfect blue was named after Peter Brock and is supposed to be similar to his blue Brock Commodores but is not as nice. He was given his nickname after Peter Perfect a character in The Whacky Races, a cartoon show. Perfect Blue is a metallic but looks very plain in all but bright sunlight.

Whereas Voodoo had a lot of metalic in it.

I think Perfect Blue should have not had metalic to be a true tribute to the legend of the HDT VK

Problem is, it's a nice colour but looks boring as sin on a modern car. Hence "Perfectly Flat Blue".
