We had an R8 at our monthly breakfast meeting last month, all black, with black lether, and it was soooooooooo coooooooool. Dark colors seem to be best in an R8; which leads me to think that all cars are designed by the designer in a particular color. Fo instance, the R8 "blade" disappears with a black car, and thus the dsign is a homogenous whole, not broken up by that "balde" conceit.
A Ferarri was designed with red in mind, and the designer used red as his design color. So naturally it looks best in red. A BMW is designed in black, so they look awsome in black, and funny in any other color (except, I guess dark blue). Not to steal this thread, but does anyone else feel this way, that certain cars look better in one color than another?
