Most popular colour?

Thanks guys for the photos of your perfect blue VF's,they look bloody nice and am sure they look even better in the flesh too...


Ozdrexler,Glad the accident didn't cause personal injury..as you said lesson learnt hopefully...very lucky fella.

 

Nice - I am adding the W310 also. Are you arranging the W310 through the dealer (thats how I am doing it)? Just a question - how have you gone with insurance with the Walkinshaw upgrade? I have not looked into this yet..but expecting some issues...

 

I have walkinshaw gear and disclosed it all to my insurer AAMI..awesome price too $470 at 45k insured value...depends a bit on age and driving history I guess but AAMI are good imhbviously your insured value will be higher by 10k + lol but suss them out,noone could come close to my quoted premium.

all my stuff was fitted pre-delivery too.

 

Reckon all the VF colours are crapping especially fantale. I decided on Prussian steel for my Calais V. Prussian steel is good for hiding general dirt and grime .

 

I tried quite a few and AMMI was the best, but my premuim was about $950 with full disclossure of all the extras. Most did want to cover me. I am having everything fitted at the delivery from Ralf DeSilva

 

Each to his own. I let my wife choose the colour, and have never been unhappy with her choice.

I would be happy with white, but the MY12.5 Z is chlorophyll and the MY14 is regal peacock green. I am content. The karma, prussian steel and nitrate (had an MY09) are too bland for me. The phantom black is just too much work to keep clean (but probably not much more than the regal peacock green) . The red hot and perfect blue are just too bright. So if not white, happy with the colours chosen.

The latter looks close to black in most light conditions, and obviously needs to be kept clean. That will create a problem. Every time I wash a car, my wife says, "Oh no. Time for a new car again. When do we go looking".

Except for the MY14. Saw a deal that looked too good to be true, and headed off to check it out in an unwashed MY12.5. The deal was real, so I bought it.

 

Yeah its a shame they got rid of the old VE colours like Voodoo Blue. I traded in my Voodoo VE Sportwagon and nearly got the Perfect Blue, but it looked flat compared to the Voodoo, so in the end I was convinced to get the Prussian Steel by the salesman and very happy he pushed me in that direction:

 

+1 ...


I wish They would bring back Vespers Blue !

​

 

Im hoping to pickup my redline in a couple of months. The colours for selection are very poor. Ill get a black vf then luckily Im in the industry Ill wrap the car whatever colour I like.

 

I was hung up between white and prussian steel. Ended up going for the steel. It's an interesting colour- sometimes it's dark grey, then it's light grey, in super bright light it can look almost brown, then in the dark it's green.

 

^^^^ Nice color, but sadly it only comes with the chrome rims.
I had to have the black rims so I went Nitrate.

 

I guess if I had pushed enough they probably would have done something.
One dealer I asked quoted me extra for the black rims.He didn't get my business.

The silver one was available in the yard and I also like that color combo so its not like I am unhappy with what I have.

 

If you're referring to the black redline rims, then unfortunately no they won't swap them from silver to black.
Apparently the black rims were so popular that they had run out of them - my car was apparently sitting at the factory for weeks because of this.
I'll assume they were happy to swap your black rims for silver because they knew it wouldn't be an issue to sell.
