I'll stick with Zaino for now.




Does turtle wax make a complete car ceramic kit? I'll try it on my shoebox

My newly acquired winning blue metallic(I think). Now I’m confused lol after seeing all the other winning blues. But from what I have found on the net, winning blue metallic was the only blue option in 2004. she been sitting in a back yard for the last couple years. She cleans up nice, better than I expected.

I don't know if it's the lighting, but that doesn't look like WB.
If it's an '04 and it's blue, it might've been repainted.

I had a WB for a couple of years.

Yes definitely different. Mine is a blue metallic, but much darker.

If you enter your VIN here, you'll find out exactly what your 8 is, model, color, options, etc.

If the VIN says WB but the inside of your door jambs and sills match the exterior paint, then someone paid good money for that paint job.

You also have aftermarket wheels.

yeah, phantom blue was 06 or 07?
those wheels look like the ones on 4 ports in 04 though...

the mystery continues.
