Default Now that the WB is under way again I'm starting to dream about color schemes and such

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/92950/gt3_color_comp.jpg"></center><p>I've got the black wheels and have decided on doing a color scheme similar to the Porsche GT3. I like the black accents on a bright color and want to give it my own unique signature. One thing I'm toying with but undecided on is painting the lower part of the sills and bumpers flat black ala the GT3. Champion race cars sported a similar look and while I didn't like it at first it's growing on me.

So, in an self serving interest I thought I would bring it up here so I would have an excuse to talk about the car. ;-)

Default If you have Forza2...

take the RS4 into the paint booth and play with it. I've replicated our WC SRT4 (with some effort) and played with the 944 to see what paint schemes would look good before it becomes a full blown racecar. Just a though and if you don't have it, email me and I'll see if I can build you one.

Default Yeah, it's pretty fun! ;)

I run it through composite cables at 1080i and the graphics are pretty amazing. I've heard it's even better with the new HDMI cables at 1080p.

You can custom paint any non-race vehicle and then during a race/test run you can pause it at any point on the track and take a photo. Photos can then be uploaded to your Forza game account and accessed online. So, I'll see if I can build you one this weekend based on your original post.

As for game, everything is ultra-realistic and the details are amazing. Even the engine notes are pretty close to accurate. It's well worth it, but would be so much better with a game chair and wheel setup. I just use the normal controller.

I know what your stance is! I can always paint the wheels silve, repaint the mirrors if I hate it

Default I played it for the first time last week. It's like crack for me. So addictive but...

...I did build a 936hp RS6. Ah, the dreams. I love that game. It's worth buying the 360 for, but I'm broke :P My REAL Audi is eating up all my cash.
