Default Caelum Blue

Just got back from a test drive of an '04 Caelum Blue. The color looks much different in person than from pictures I had seen. It seems to change in sunlight depending on what angle you are looking at. I almost felt like it looked purple in the sunlight from some angles. Any opinions on this color? I like it but I definitely don't want a purple lambo. Would anyone mistake it for purple?

There's only one person who has to like the color, and that's you!

I've never perceived it as purple. I was on a run with one a couple weeks ago and it certainly didn't look purple. It's definitely one of those colours that changes shade. Personally I find it a slightly strange colour on a Lambo, but the colour itself is very nice and quite unique. The car I was with had some chrome wheels... Argh I can't think of the make, the one with the swiss emblem on them, lots of straight straight spokes. I'm anti chrome, but his looked classy and worked great with the paint.

I dont think Ive ever thought of it as purple. If you really like the car with that color, who cares what other might think or say. I would much rather be driving THAT purple lambo vs driving a geo prizm. (not trying to hate on the geo haha)

never thought of it as purple. more dark blue. i think it's a rare color that looks legit. it wouldn't be my choice of color but it's not bad by any means. diablo also had this color choice i think.

gvan, i think you saw a set with HRE wheels.

Yes! HRE, thanks It was bugging the hell out of me. I tried to find them on their website but couldn't find the specific wheels.

If you have to ask don't do it, you obviously have reserves about it.

Don't settle for just any. You'll know it when you see it.

Personally, I don't think there's anything wrong with a purple lambo! But seriously, caelum blue doesn't look purple.
