Bronze Muira beats both gold and yellow for my money! I prefer red or black seats over ivory anyday. While red is the correct colour for Ferraris I actually like the green best although the 2 colour trials known, light metallic blue with red seats and metallic light brown with ivory seats are less attractive.
The 2 rare colour combos I most wish had made it into mass production is 1st : the pale grey with red interior 24c Rolls as appears in the corner of a range photo in the 1st collector catalog to feature this new casting and 2nd : the SF46 MB300SE in Pontiac GP purple as we saw on a colour trial recently here

Pale grey with red int. on the rolls sounds dreamy for sure!
That same combo I saw a fella do a custom of on the #69 Rolls looked amazing. And thin wheels to boot. Some may have seen it on ebay.

The deepest darkest #22 purple I much prefer over the lighter purple.
Would LOVE to see what that Mercedes looks light and in which shade.
Could you sport me a linc to that thread please SMS?

I dont have one, it was an ebay auction,probably rockertron , the star lot!

Mick is referring to this model sold by Rockertron for £2149 to one of our German friends if i am not mistaken!!

*gAsP*!!!
Completely goreous, and worth every nickel....if I had that many nickels.
Thanks for the Mr. Motorman!

There's been a red one for a while on ebay from a German guy. Nice looking too imo.

Well the little critter finally wondered into my mail box.
The picture didn't lie, it is bronze, but it's the lighter shade - which I didn't have.
Looks exactly like the 2nd darkest car two of you gents have shown.
So I guess it's still a win.

Thanks again for everyone's helpful fotos and thoughts on the matter!

Yes, maybe it's not what you were hoping for Dave but it's still a win if it fills a gap, providing the price was ok. Photos can be very deceiving sometimes, if I spot something unusual in a lisiting I usually check the sellers other items to see if there's a pattern to the way the colours come out in their pictures. The hunt goes on!

Oh!
Never thought of looking at different auction pix from the same seller. Great tip John!
I do however compare colors in the same pic if there's more than one car.

The price was pretty good considering the new variation and a complete SF-4 Double Loop Race Set....
...so stop on over anytime and we'll play cars!

Be Well,
Dave

Holy smokes, I just noticed something.
Just now got around to studying the dark blue Iso Grifo that came in this set, and it's the light blue interior variation I didn't have yet either.
Plus...it's blue candy coat is lighter than any of my others.
Perhaps a small victory, but a fun surprise!

There you go, victory grabbed from the jaws of defeat
