My LeMans Blue comes off the line tomorrow morning (VIN 4901) I pick it up at the museum on 10/18. I'll definitely post some pics as soon as I get it. The pics listed above are the best I'v seen so far. I think the guy with that car got the first LeMans Blue sold to the public.

But LeMans blue is coming soon now!

No problem; I have them bookmarked, so I can look at them once a day or so until mine shows. It's like photo-methadone...

I've been going back and forth, but Lemans Blue has to be the best color. In some light it gives you the dark, mean look of black, while in others you get that brilliant metallic blue that really shows off the lines. Gonna look great on chrome wheels.....still deciding the best color interior. Cashmere is probably the nicest look, but black would definitely give it a little mean edge....still not sure I like the gray...a little too light for me, although I could see how it would look very nice...

Check out this steel grey interior as a comparison:
