Well, you're probably right, but, I'll notice. Saw a black turbo with the side skirts painted and it actually gives the appearance of the car looking lower. Not sure why, but, it definately looked better to me.

I think you are really looking way to deep and spliting hairs but heck if it makes you happy

Lou paint the side trim. It's going to look much better even on black. It is a noticable difference especially if you have a painted front spoiler.

I posted impressions on a previous thread, below is my response to someone who asked if they should trade their Turbo in for a Z8


You need both!! I have a Z8 and I can honestly say it brings a smile to my face everytime I drive it. It is a different animal. People always ask me which I like driving better. If the weather is nice, I want to turn heads whereever I go and talk to perfect strangers, then the Z8 is the car to drive. When I simply want to drive ***** out, the Turbo wins out. The Z8 is no slouch, 1/4 mile times are like mid 12's and I can count on one hand how many other ones I have seen on the road. In the 4 months my car has been in Miami, I have seen 2 other Z8's ever. In chicago for the 8 months I had it, I saw 2 Z8's on the road. As far as that example, it is certainly overpriced, although not by $10k. My friend who owns a BMW store just bought one wholesale, 2003 manual trans with 1800 miles for $102,500.00, and sold it for $108k. Wholesale for 2002's is around $95k and 2001's is like $87k.
