I'm hoping I'll be ready for the SE track day on the 29th.


Again, Thanks everyone for the kind words! As for the price.....I have a very good friend that does this for a living, so. Insurance paid for the damage done and I'm paying the extra work. For me its coming out to about a "G" extra.


The paint is called Verde Ithaca. Its from a Lambo.

what a coincidence..

i used to have a mazdaspeed and i go through the forums now and then and someone painted theirs the same color.. i think it will definitely look better on a tc.

And they didnt hit the C/F. Thats the only thing they didnt get. They even scratched out the headlights. They had to be replaced. Trust me I wanted to kill whoever did it too.

I really like that new color, there is a thread on the "fictional" RS4 being green.

This reminds me of the Hardee's commercial with the guy with more than one girlfriend.

Hopefully you have a better quality paint than the stock paint, it is Capital C Crap.

Some people don't like the color?

Who cares!

I think it looks awesome!

Sometimes it's not easy being green!

Yeah the only problem with green is it never looks the same in 2 pictures. In person it looks just like a Lambo green...which it is. In the pics its kinda yellow to me.


Anyway, The rest of the car is paint and drying over the weekend. They are putting it all back together monday and I shuld have it on the road late next week.

More pics coming soon!


And Thanks Bobby(my brother)! For anyone wondering His tC is the black one in my profile.
