Wow Tom, thanks for sharing! Observations - all with the caveat of never trusting screen colours:
Seneca Blue - looks like a true sample and rendering, it is definitely lighter than it appears in some photos.
Magma red - a LOT brighter and more true red than the configurator - tempting (although there is a risk of trying to look like youve got a baby ferrari...)
Nimbus grey - lighter than on the config, nice.
Shadow grey - man, this one looks so different in different photos, this looks at the lighter end of the spectrum and it's tempting me - but too "safe"?
Yellow - this POPS! The car already says look at me, do I want the colour to say that too? Also tempting as many Ferrari's and Lambo's look great in yellow.
Dark Verdant - DARK!!! But lovely with it, and fairly true to the config - think it will lighten up in daylight. I really love the look with the black pack and hope the green/black contrast is strong enough.
I think I now have more options than before, but having said that, it may all change again in the flesh!

lolWow. The red looks closer to a fire engine red than a maroon metallic. The grey looks closer to white. The nimbus grey looks like they mixed the paint particles with a chainsaw. The blue now looks more baby blue. Looks like the best color choice will be the yellow.
Thanks for posting this @TomE

First viewing at Bell & Covill
Waiting patiently outside. Got a sneak peak of the blue as I arrived - looks stunning.

What you say it was more like nado grey or crayon from Porsche with a hint of metallic ??
