Default How many Yellow Classic's out there?

Trying to workout how many yellow Scooby Classics are out there (any model):

Here is mine (ignore the missing bits, it's a work in progress):





As far as I know, it's the only STi v6 Type RA in this colour and only a handful of these were made in this colour in the last batch of the v6 car's before they moved to v7 bugeye shape. Along side the STi 6 Type RA Subaru also released a Sport Special I believe.

Funny colour, in bright light turns a bright Yellow, in dim light turns pale almost white.

So far spotted:

Yellow Sport Special in my home town - in mint factory condition except for a debadged boot.
Yellow STi 6 in High Wycombe, again looked really clean

So anyone other custard coloured Classic's out there?

Finalzero, that is an awesome colour and mota mate............i've never even seen that colour before............i love it

Do you have any plans to change the colour of the rims though? Hope you don't think i'm being rude mate but not sure the gold really goes with the colour...........i have first hand experience of this as i have a Mica Red classic on Prodrive 7 spokes in gold and i think they look so out of place.

Errr........perhaps i've just got a thing against gold wheels now!

Cheers mate, Yeah gold alloys look good on blue scoobs I think. Not sure which ones to go for, looking at maybe putting on white alloys or anthracite colour which should go well against the yellow colour

FZ, car looks great.

I mentioned in another thread that you should keep the wheels as they're becoming rare. Also happen to be one of the best wheels for a GC8, IMO. Just get 'em resprayed when you engage 'stealth' mode.
