Personally i love it, vibrant & different from the herd, for those same reasons most would probably shy away :?

Yeah works for me, agreed on black roof wrap.

Of course it’s still second in line to Valencia Orange :poke:

I like it as it's a colour (unlike all the black/grey/whites) but I wouldn't buy one.

I much prefer Valencia, Melbourne Red and Deep Sea Blue on the E89s.

But I'd definitely consider a Phoenix Yellow E85/86.
Coupes because stunning!

Wrong on a Zed. Much prefer metalics, such a personal thing though, go for it if you like it, simples. :D
