Interesting thread. For me, Silvestone as a color drains the drama out of the F82, in contrast to previous photos such as AY. The bolder colors add character along with CF roof.
Silver also suffers from the overwhelming number of economy cars in shades of silver. When my teenage son looked for his first car, it was a silver Camry because they are as bland and innocuous a color that disappears in traffic. Perfect choice if your goal is to disappear into a background.
