That picture appeared a while ago on ebay on an auction for a finished 1/24th scale plastic model. Either a nice job of putting in a life sized background or someone got a spy shot of the real thing and used it in the ad for the model.

I had gone to an autoshow in March and Nissan had 4x6 inch samples of the actual painted metal sheets. The sample appeared much brighter and more shiny and similar to the concept color although not as shiny. I had picked the LeManz exterior because it will go well with the orange interior which I really like. I actually picked the interior first before matching the exterior. People see me as a very conservative guy and this is anything but conservative...you only live once! Carpe Diem!

I am confident that the actual color will not be similar to the above color which really sucks. I think its is a toy model or photoshopped image

Its a model guys. That pic has been around for awhile now. Someone (I don't remember who) put it together and painted it what he thought Le Mans would be based on the painted metal sample tubes in the Canadian autoshow. He then put it up with the real background. Notice how grainy the area just in front of the front wheel looks? Take a look at any of the painted models on here and they look similar.

that color really has a lot of copper in it. I hope the real Sunset isn't like that. Reminds me of the copper facia i have on my house.

My friend went to the Indy 500 this weekend and he said there was a Le Mans at the race. He didn't have his camera with him!! So sorry.
