Thanks! Very glad I happened to find the Nardo and jumped on it even though the cost premium was a bit of a tough pill to swallow even after some haggling

Rob O, that Navara up above with them wheels looks damn nice!

If they had a Nardo sitting on the lot when I bought my car, I would have bought it too! I'm too impatient to order a custom color.

I really like the color however I hate the name "Nardo". Sounds like something we called each other in elementary school...
Sorry just felt the need to share my thought

Your post got me thinking; where did the name come from? So I spent some time on teh Googles...

It's named for the famous raceway in Italy; the Narḍ Ring.

This 7.8 mile banked circle in Italy is where the fastest cars in the world come to test their top speed. It's so big, you can even see it from space.

I've new found Respect for it now!

Funny you mention that because I thought the same thing the first time I heard it.
