I recently painted my wife's 74 VW Superbeetle in Chromalusion. It's just about the same color, "Absolute Purpleen". Since the bug has no flat panels, the paint is really wild. I can identify about 7 different colors in it. I ain't gonna paint one of my vintage Vettes with that stuff, but I will say that when I have the bug out and about, it draws more attention than either of the Corvettes does.

Just looked at the Chromalusion chart. Those Jades are all pretty wild too. It is one wild bug. Definately an attention getter. :D
