That color looks great in the sun!! Congrats on the S3. I have to ask, what is suction-cupped to your windshield?

NICE! Congrats.

Are those all-season tires, they look like it?

What bridge is that in the BG?

Yep. Beluga does seem to be one of the colors that's in there. That was the only color that I couldn't identify. Thanks!

But in-person, and in direct bright sunlight, the purple tinge seems to be the prevalent color. So far the Panther Black has 5 different colors depending on the sun/light that I counted so far. There's the Black, a super dark grey, a greenish grey (hard to explain), The Purple, and Beluga. Nice color choice.

Thanks guys. The tires are Winter Pirelli's Sottozero II series. If you followed my other thread about the EPC light issues, you would know I am in Jersey

Thanks for posting the pics! I'm picking up my Panther either today or tomorrow (just waiting on the call from the dealer) and I can hardly stand the anticipation. I bought the Panther without seeing it, but it has received rave reviews from everyone I've talked to.

I will just drool over your car until picking mine up...
