I agree, Phil, but what's up with all the dull/flat paint these days?? I guess it's trendy, huh?

I guess I know which '12 GT3 Z4 I'm doing (the last pic)! That livery is just awesome. Maybe even Rossi's Ferrari, too. Who keeps making these great liveries to trap and rip the dollars out of our wallets???

There must be something trendy in brand's mind when releasing flat black color on road cars but talking for me what I like is the unusuall contrast between other different color and sponsors stickers and flat black we're not used to have with classical glossy color.
Also those cars catch light differently on pictures.
But that's mostly a question of taste.

....- 2011 = real GT1 (R35, Murcielago, MC12, Ford GT1, DBR9...)

2012 = GT3 "GT1" (R8, MP4-12c, Z4, Ford GT3, SLS....)

2013 FIA "GT1" ????

Hi Mike,

Thanks for sharing the pics. Do you have some pics of the winner from that race? It think it was the #75 Prospeed Porsche. Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Lesley
