If this is your forever car, you buy what you want, or you will regret not getting it in the first place, especially when it is something you can't retrofit

Yes, Aston DBR's had painted pale blue frames to show up cracks and look great. My vintage builds take the same approach but with modern 2 pack epoxy primer and then an light cover with a pale Iso 2 pack or nitrocellulose paint. The problem with the INEOS contrast frame is that it's KTL dipped (good) but then they bloody powdercoat the thing so cracks will never show up and if there is a breach of the powdercoat and the primer you are in TVR territory with internal frame corrosion you need a boroscope to detect. Had the INEOS had a contrasted painted chassis I'd have gone for it in a heartbeat as rallying the thing after a few years of use has always been a plan.
It’s not just standard powder though, I have forgotten the name of the process but it’s a more sophisticated bonding process than straight powder. Apparently very chip resistant and tough.
That's what I read somewhere else on here - yes.
That's how I will spec mine when it becomes available in the US. Have you been able to see the red ladder frame in person? Does it have a matte finish or a glossy one?
Matte - t'was a bit too risque for me to order blind but having seen one now, it looks really good.
Did you get black contrast roof?Got to see mine at the dealers today, very pleasednow just needs PDI.
Similar spec to mine bar the red chassis. Looks excellent. Mine should arrive at the dealership tomorrow.Got to see mine at the dealers today, very pleased
