The blue color looks great. I'm not too sure about the flames, but the car does look much better than it did before.

The first word which comes to mind is RICH, very pleasant shade of blue, very deep yet bright, and flames complement the car as well. Congrats, the old man did a great job!

The blue is simply stunning! All you need now is some aftermarket rims

I don't know what the heck everyone is talking about, but the old color scheme was cool as well . Black and white with purple flames down the side, what the heck is wrong with that?

Well, I appreciate your opinion of my vehicle. Everyone has their own, and I admire your honesty. I think you are the first person to ever say that they didn't like my car. BTW -- This is what it looks like outside of my sig.


...however, we aren't here to discuss my car. He asked what I thought about his car. I don't think I said anything bad. I just don't like purple. That is my opinion which I am entitled to, just like you. I absolutely love the blue color but if it was my car, I would have done the flames differently. However, it isn't my car so that doesn't matter. If he is happy with it, then great... I am happy for him! He asked what I thought, and I gave him my opinion. Was I supposed to lie?

..and thank you everyone else for the compliments. That was real sweet
