I have a deep bronze Type R and it looks great. Sure most people think it's black but when the sun catches it, wow!

I was going to get it in Milano Red but it'd have been keyed in no time where I live. This is much more subtle and bit different from black, also it's quite rare and I like that.

The key for me is this paint job doesn't scream "Type R" instead it says (to me) sporty 3-door car that's a bit different. Sure I love my Type R but I don't always want people to be revving engines at me at the lights, resenting me for owning one or getting right up behind me expecting that I'll give it a good ragging!

Works for me anyway!
