Funny that because it certainly doesn't seem like it when we (although it's rare for me to) attend a meet. We silvers are normally in the minority (really we are..i'v notised and commented on it a few times.)

Red, blue and varients of seem to be prevalent thumbsup

On the issue of total numbers, weren't lotus comittioned to build a total of 10,000 thumbsup

Edited to add: That number would be 'total'...ie, speedsters, na's, turbo's and vxr's (so 10,000 chassis i suppose)

I too have also wondered about the number of cars supposed to be silver. I have a silver one and in all my time I have only saw one other one. The Ly yellow is by far the most popular colour I see at meets in fife etc. :P :grouphug:

Knock a few off that number for the ones written off already! Were they only in silver when the NA first came out? Might explain why such a high %, but don't see all that many (had time to be crashed or been resprayed to Calypso red) B)
