Le Mans Blue
A little help please, Is Avus Blue still one of the color selections available, has anyone seen A Le Mans blue next to an Avus Blue, If so which looks better.
If anyone has A Le Mans Blue In the Tri-State area of N.J. N.Y. C.T. please let me know I'd like to see the car If possible.

Thank You In Advance,

Frank,
"00" M5
Imola Red / Red And Black sportive

As I understand it, Le Mans has replaced Avus, which is no longer being offered.

TomM is correct. Avus blue is no longer available (making mine more collectible??). LeMans blue is what you'll get now. It is a bit "brighter" and has a purple-ish hue (it's not purple, just purple-ish) to it, and is not quite as subtle, IMHO. LeMans blue exterior looks OK with LeMans blue sportive interior (which DIDN'T look good with Avus Blue exterior - they didn't match well)

If you want pics of Avus to compare, email me at SPaulin@cisco.com, and I can send you some. There's one small pic of mine at this site: www.geocities.com/steve_lorax
