New details to emerge soon, or just going for clicks?

    Would not be interested in a manual but new colours would be interesting.

    Saw the Isle of Man green on an M4 and think it would really suit the G29. Had seen some images online but the colour looks a little darker and better in real life.

    The new purple I think is the opposite Images I like it but put off when I saw it up close.

    Each to their own I suppose
    G29 M30i M Sport San Francisco Red

    I've considered a green wrap for my car honestly. With gold wheels I think it would be stunning.
