Generally, I'd agree. I do tihnk full black wheels don't often look good. However, the GS in BF is, IMO, stunning.

BF on a GS is beautiful, i dont like all black wheels though on the GT.
Woody, i was looking at the GS classified section on MF the other day, there was a BF GS on there, H.R Owen had it for sale, it was up for something like 47k. I take it you know about that car.

Yep. I actually went to see it - that was the 2007 one.
The fella I spoke to there was condescending and put me off dealing with them completely. I went to look at it on a very wet and cold Sunday and only looked around it outside (didnt go in to speak to anyone) and he came out "thats sold sir".
I went in and explained it was out of budget and only wanted to see the colour in person. He took details and when I said my budget was mid-high £30k's he said "I can get you a 4-2 for that". Grrrr..... It went on, but needless to say, if/when I buy another, they woulnt be my first port of call.

47k is way too expensive, 40k was what that car was worth tops.
Would you swap your GS you have now in a year or 2 for a GS Spyder.

It was a while ago. Apparently they "could have sold it 3 time today already" when I saw it, so a popular car.
Would I swap for a Spyder? No, I dont think so. More likely a QP

You having Carlo's Dem?
As Dem knows and a couple of others on here might know too, I looked for a BF GS for a while but there are only 5 of them officially in the UK.
From what I could gather, one was the press car which had the blue interior and is a 2004 car, there is a BF with red which I think it a 2005 car, another 2005 car (I dont know ANYTHING about this one), a 2006 car which I think is nero/tech and a 2007 car which is nero/bianco I think and was origianlly owned by a chap on MF.
I was keen to see if either the 2006 or 2007 car was available - the 2006 car wasnt (spoke to the owner) and the 2007 car had only just been bought by the current owner.....so I gave up.
For me, I thikn the BF car could carry a full nero interior, but would need contrasting stiching either in yellow, blue or white. If yellow, callipers would have to macth
DL had the nero with bianco one for sale .... It was a stunner ... It was an LE...

DL sold the 2007 originally which was the nero/bianco one I saw at HRO.
Was the one you're refring to the used one for sale a summer or two ago? I didnt see the interior of that but it's owned by a chap on MF.

I want to come to a meet at some point soon, particularly now the weather is better! I've still yet to see a GS, 42 or even a 32 when I've been out in mine, so a run out would be good at some point.
I'll keep my eyes peeled for something soon, would be good to meet you and a few of the other nutters off here.

As I recall they sold it from new Woody ... It was 2007 I think and remember looking at it for weeks and weeks hoping my numbers came up ..... Def black and white inside ....Actually they didn't call it white inside they said it was light grey but it was def closer to white than grey in my eyes.

I guess I'm appealing to a slightly biased audience and appologies for resurrecting an old thread but... am I wasting my money on this: http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/...ranturismo-s-4-7-v8--mc-shift--2012-12/957337
My wife who has a physical aversion to white cars even likes the look of it in the flesh! I haven't owned a car since I was at school and I've managed to hose money on pretty much every bike I've owned. I'm almost resigned to losing 30k on this over the next few years, maybe even more as we're nearing the end of the models life. Any idea what this might have been new? I'm not embarrassed to admit, I've no idea what I'm doing.
