If Imola was more like Porsche Speed Yellow or Ferrari Fly Yellow I'd be all over that car...or another Imola one, but I've never been able to get into the paler yellow color. If I'm going with a yellow car, then lets go all out.

Imola yellow really isn't all that pale IMHO

Yep that one has been there for a bit now. It's really a great car for someone who can deal with that color. I don't mind it much, but it screams "pull me over" so I didn't order one with a loud color.

I always thought the same thing. Maybe Yellow is different than Sprint Blue, but my previous car was a very similar Blue to this (Montego Blue, BMW) and I got pulled over once in 3 years - and that time I drove right into a speed trap, so it was more like fish in a barrel than him chosing me.

When you compare it to the other yellows I mentioned it definitely looks light Butter Yellow vs a sport color...but at least it's not that god awful snot green/yellow (Phoenix yellow I think) that BMW has.

I've noticed that too. It's quite dull. Of course, brilliant red isn't. It definitely falls in the same category as sprint blue and imola yellow (and nogaro used to).

I like sprint blue, however, I do prefer it without all that chrome on it.

This is in my local dealer, just think it looks a lot more sporty without the chrome....

Default Sprint Blue!

I absolutely love this color. And I love the way it stands out in the crowd. (My car on the ferry near Seattle)
