Who's car is this?

[gruizer]

Does anyone know if this car belongs to an FAQer?  I'm really interested in the color code used to paint this car.  I looks like a Derby color but when compared to other Derby cars it looks to have more of taupe tint to it than the grey/blue tint that you see in most Derby cars.  If anyone has any info on the paint specs, I would be really interested to know.  This was one of my favorite 02's that I saw at the Brisbane show this year.

The FAQ does not like the .HEIC iPhone format.  You can convert it to JPG on-line and then change the settings on your iPhone to only save pictures in JPG format.

 

Maybe this car?

Guys, so sorry for the image loading issue.  I had to log into my PC (instead of my Mac) to properly get the JPG in there.  It does seem to be the one in Mark's picture, but I reloaded mine to be sure.

Tapioca?  Only if it's been in the fridge for weeks!

 

I too like the 'grey with a lot of chroma' look on cars like ours that

have lots of chrome on them.  Looks period, looks understated, 

but isn't boring.

That 1600 Ti looks very Bristol to me.  Depending on the paint manufacturer's formula, you can get slightly different shades.  Also, the photo can look slightly darker or lighter depending on the camera exposure.

Me three. Sure looks like Bristol. Derby is a darker gray than Bristol.
