don't forget car manufacturers/distributors hand their new releases to the press to test quite a few weeks before official launch dates so by the time the articles are printed in the magazines they roughly coincide with the launch dates.

No white for us probably because of the higher demand of white in the UK.

Only for the poms, because they designed and built it.

theres no white listed as a colour in the broucher available for d/l from the uk site, only red, black, silver and bronze pearl.
any links or anything where youve seen white. would look pretty good in white i rekon
