My photos are the ones that don't do it justice, because they're a bit underexposed. Just think of it as me taking pics of the car at night, because I'm sure that color will be sooooo sexy in the dark with faint, city/street lights shining on it.

Nor was it orangey or that young, immature sporty red -- if you know what I mean. I thought that there would be too much red with all that sheet metal, but boy was it hot. There is enough chrome and black from the tires -- not to mention the wheat interior -- that complement the red.

What really sucks is that I was probably one of the first to order my G (over three months ago), but now I think I am one of the last to see it in person.

The splash guards are a nice touch. Just like the current models. I've already ordered mine with it.

Just go in from Pennsylvania; WOW things have been hopping
Hey Shane if you can find any pix of those wheels on a car in decent resolution....
I can make it a little nicer by getting rid of the black background.
The black darkens the overall look.
Also, wasn't sure what colour you were thinking of.
