Is Racing Blue a more common colour?

 

[Wightman]

no not at all, if anything its less common...

It isn't a metallic colour and it is an acquired taste IMO.

I'm sure I'm teaching you to suck eggs here, but it may also be because you are looking at 182 Cups rather than 182 FF with Cup packs.

The 182 Cup came in Inferno and Racing Blue and resale values will be lower because they have a lower equipment spec.

Cheers

Racing blue arent cheaper than the silver models. There was over 1000 Titanium models produces and only 400 odd racing blue (someone will know the exact figures).

To be honest price wise there shouldnt be any difference bar the liquid models.

As above, the ONLY racing blue's that should be cheaper than silver/black etc are the Cup versions. The full fat ones are still priced slightly higher.

Exactly what i was going to type. Silver seems to be the cheapest ff, then black. Racing blue ff's go for a fair bit more than silver or black.
