Too true. The colours on the Forza are a bit weird as only certain bits get painted with the rest of it staying much the same as for the other colour choices.

Re the Italian roundel - well it is Italian built, so that kind of works.

I am SO with you there!! Everything is black or a choice of 2 shades of grey. I grew up in the 70s when everything was freaky colours - bright yellows, purples - groovy man! There weren't many good things about the 70s but the colours were great!

I seem to remember that my Dad had one of the first Renault 5s, which was bright orange, inside as well as outside! Wouldn't get that today!

I think I've said it before but my 1977 Vauxhall Magnum was Coppertone Starfire. 8-)

I.e., brown. :oops:

But it did follow a green Allegro, so it was an improvement really.

Just been into my old Honda place of work, Newcastle Motorcycles and they have just received the official Honda UK Forza 300 Limited Edition information. Sadly we in the UK are only being offered the Air Force Grey colour at the normal RRP of £5099 and no additional colour coded top box option.
