Twilight Blue looks unbelievable in direct sunlight. Actually, I think I like the way it looks than my Athens Blue...when in the sun. However, when the sun isn't out, Twilight Blue looks too dark, and you can hardly tell it's any shade of blue. If you saw a Twilight Blue driving towards you down the street, you'd think the car was black or dark grey.
FYI - Twilight Blue was only offered on '04 coupes. Athens Blue didn't come out until '05. I'm not sure, but I think it was offered for '06 models as well. Carribean Blue was offered in '03 only, I believe.
Here's a pic of Triji's SWEET looking TB Coupe. HOT!!!

That is why I dont think that i want that color. I want something that will have "that" effect all the time

G/L with the colour choice. I guess you've then got to find one too.

Not really, I already found two AB 05's but i really want IP. I am thinking of holding out just a bit longer...but i dont want to wait till FEB or MAR for one to come in.
I think I want to see an AB one in person first, up close and personal, before really committing on the color. They look amazing on paper (that is, net) but in person may be different.
I probably will check the two i found in AB this or next weekend.
In the meantime.......Come on IP come to meeeeeeeeeeeee

P.S found a nice IP owned by someone on this board...good guy, but it is all the way in Calgary. I am one of those that like to tinker and play with everything in the car before buying and MOST importantly, test drive it. (Am I being too picky) hahahaha.

I guess i am being impatient.
But the thing is that 2-3 years ago, there were not as many people buying a sports coupe around the month of December, January or February therefore there will not be many coming off lease 2-3 years later (referring to now). And let alone with its rarest color, white

Yes, i will continue to wait and hope that an amazing condition IP comes in.
Thanks for the support...hahaha...almost crossed over to the dark side
