The transporter delivered mine Tuesday and I finally had a chance to wash it and take some pics. I'm very impressed with Monaco Blue - having bought it sight unseen.

I agree with you that the Monaco Blue is stunning. Its hard to tell from the photos, but it looks like it has a nice metallic finish in the color.
If you lived closer to NJ, I'd try to talk you into washing mine so it would be nearly as clean as you've gotten your! Enjoy, and don't forget the double nickle during break-in period (5500 rpm).

The metallic look is only visible in the sun. It's difficult to keep it under 5500!

Love that shade of blue. Must be stunning with the sepang and walnut interior - a really classy GT look.

I had a Toledo Blue 745 that I wasn't crazy about - the wife picked the color, it was her car - but this blue is almost black, similar to Carbon Black in the shade.
