New M2. Big car! Much nicer in the flesh but I’m not keen on the MPE.
When is it getting finished and painted?

Its not his car?
It's his mates I think?
Pretty sure Fiat got their first with the Abarth 500?Audi released Nardo Grey on an RS model about a decade ago, it was a bit different, so became a talking point. At which point other manufacturers saw the interest it generated and all thought "lets do that too"
It's something new for all the people afraid of having an actual colour who have done black, white, silver and metallic grey to death already.
The historical connection being post war they had a tonne of aircraft grey leftover, so a lot of the early Fiat's were painted that colour because it was available.
They brought it back when homages to older cars was at its peak (Mustang etc).
They may well have done but everyone I notice online seems to refer to all flat/gloss grey as 'Nardo Grey', so I would say it was definitely the Audi implementation that popularised it.
Nope, just randomly in Tesco. But my mate did drive the exact same car as an extended test drive some 70 miles away.
Probably saves loads for the manufacturer, just put lacquer straight on to the primer, done

No picture but the other day I saw a Ferrari Daytona. I almost had to do a double take. Seen plenty of them at shows etc but never one in the flesh coming up to a roundabout!
It is almost double the price of a Urus
A Urus is just a RSQ8 in drag, so likely worth it.
May be, but the Urus has been the insta poser's car of choice for the last few years, and it was either that or a Bentayga, now Ferrari has this car I'm sure many will buy one over the former two.
I don't think money is the limiting factor for Urus shoppers, rather the type of car and the badge on the bonnet.

I saw a red Ferrari F8 Spider parked outside Halfords in Watford, '71 plate. Didn't take a picture, I was in a rush 
I dunno man, I could maybe stretch to a URUS and it would impress my friends. Ferrari is a different league entirely

Bet they would cry into their cornflakes when they hear you say that.
just buy a honda with a big wing, all my friends are impressed.
I just heard last night that he's crashed the 2nd one now too..........My nephew’s car. And this is why you don’t buy a rwd sports car for your son’s 18th birthday…….
