Silverstone is a fine color that shows off the lines well and has a different character depending on light conditions. Many manufactures use silver when presenting their cars at auto shows for that very reason. German car manufactures are known for over engineering and clean designs. To my eye, the F82 is a bit over designed compared to the F80 and looks like it is starting to pick up Japanese design cues. Over designed cars tend not to age well. Car enthusiasts complain about Porsche's lack of creative design through the decades, but Porsche understands the importance of the general public identifying a Porsche when they see one, whether it be vintage or new.
