Turned around and had it painted silver! That lasted 5 years!
Looks like you have a CF roof. Add some CF side skirts (also needed to stop debris from marking the rocker panels,) CF hood vent as I did or even more CF to change the look. Love mine, which is 1 year old.

JerryU - Awesome color combo!

Why not just hold off and enjoy your beautiful CRM Stingray for a few months. At the end of April the 2016 options and colors will be shown at the NCM Bash. Then you can decide if the new features are worth waiting for or maybe trade to a 2015 DSOM then. Either way you've already taken the depreciation of the new car.

I think you are right. As for now, I am going to wait. Thanks for the opinions.
