This is non-renault, but I thought it would share it with you all cuz I'm extremely bored and thought it was a bit stupid. The guy seems to think that this impreza is in a "rare reddish blue colour" Confused

Am I the only one that can't see the reddish part? Looks like a blue-ish blue to me! Rolling Eyes

Looks nice though doesnt it.

Apart from the silly spoiler, I think huge spoilers look stupid on any car, no matter how high performance they are. About half that size and it would look nice

Was parked up in BP petrol station last night and underneath the fluorescent lights you could see a huge range in colour from a really greeny blue to a dark purple. Looked blummin great! Never realised the flip was as extreme as that. Not bad for a 1991 car IMO.

But yes t scoob does seem to have a range that spans from mediumish blue to.................well.............mediumish blue Rolling Eyes

Yeah I know what you mean about the flip paint. Mine looks proper purple in strong sunlight! It's well nice Very Happy

And yeah I agree with you there neal, I love that shape impreza it's definitely the best one......but that spoiler 'spoils' it Laughing doesn't it! Looks a bit crap & stuck on like. Ah well, nice car!

i am really starting to like 'flip' paintwork on cars

i want my hatch resprayed sometime in the new year and was thinking of maybe getting it 'flipped'

but i also like that burnt orange paint on the 182's and the megane 225's, was also thinking megane coupe yellow as never seen a 19 in that colour but not sure if it would suit it or not

I've seen a 19 in that colour si.....

The alloys are a bit shit, and I dunno what the hell he's done to the bonnet.......but it's yellow! Maybe it's not the exact yellow, I dunno. But it doesn't look too bad I don't think. Would be different anyway!

That yellow 19 doenst look too bad actually.

Notice they have coloured the door frame between the windows black for a continuous dark area, that looks very neat.

Well spotted neal! I knew there was something 'different' about it, other than the fact it's yellow! But I couldn't put me finger on it, but that's it! Very Happy
