It's ok. Not for me... Reminnds me of camo, but with blue instead of green. I kind of like the doors.

Well that hurts resale value but the dude is all in!
Best thing I can say……owner is not an old fart. Our hobby needs to appeal to the younger hobiests.
Im glad the car brings in a younger customer.

I like it on someone else’s car… I wouldn’t do it, but it’s nice to see. To each his own.

Really unusual and striking. It is not for me, but if you like it great. Enjoy the uniqueness and love your car.
