Re: Ferrari colors

Thanks for trying! All I'm really trying to do is figure out whether to bother spending £10 on getting some Blu Abu Dhabi made up by Hiroboy for my F12 when it comes. I actually really like the dark blue-green colour in the Ferrari configurator, and the 1/18th custom model link you posted earlier, and that's the colour I'd like to paint my F12. Unfortunately, looking at the images of other cars that may or may not be Blu Abu Dhabi (the Google search is a bit hit and miss...), it's hard to tell whether it IS actually a rich blue-green or not -- it's clearly very dependent on the lighting. What I need to do, as you and Mr Noble pointed out, is see a REAL F12 in Blue Abu Dhabi, in natural local daylight! Sadly, my "local" Ferrari dealers are in Leeds or Cheshire, so I can't just "pop in", and while we have a few Ferraris round here, none of them are F12s or blue in any way (though I have seen a 360 Spider in Azzuro California in my local supermarket car park, once)

I might just bite the bullet and order the paint anyway... I can alway homebrew my own colour by adding some British Racing Green if it's not what I want!

bestest,
M.
