Frost White & Vertigo Blue Vantage are extinct?
#17
I'll take either or at this point... I just want to find the right one and they both seem very rare to locate.
Thank you,
Alin

Reviving an older thread... I'm still in the market and cannot for the life of me find a Frost White or Vertigo Blue Vantage coupe.
If anyone has any good leads, please let me know as I would really like to purchase one from now till summer.
Thanks!

In case you haven't done so, expand your search to include Cobalt Blue and Iridium Blue, that might help open up the number of results. The vast majority of V8Vs are grey-scale, brighter blues aren't terribly common, which is unfortunate because it's so beautiful on the cars.

Thanks for the responses guys!
bluebarchetta - I love the Cobalt Blue on the S's but that's slightly out of my budget at the moment.
I'm looking for something in the 60-75K mark. I'll go anywhere in Canada or the States.
telum01 - Cobalt Blue's are only on the S's, and the Iridium Blue is not what I want exactly.
If anyone has any leads though, please let me know. I have been searching for a very long time with no success.

Hey Cobalt, I've been shopping around and know there's this frost white one (which was used in the L.A. Autoshow) on sale:

Apparently we're from the same neck of the woods where it's -20C right now - for those of you south of the border that's about -273F
Spent about a year looking for a blue manual V8. Closest was a 2011 (or 2012) V8 blue (i think it was cobalt) auto out in Calgary around this time last year.
As you already know, the blue ones are very hard to find. I eventually concluded that if I didn't want to compromise on the color (particularly with the manual) it was going to be a long wait. Ended up buying new to get what I wanted.
Have you talked to the dealers in Montreal and Toronto? I've seen a few really nice used ones in Montreal and if they're aware you're looking they'll certainly let you know when something comes up. Eric at Decarie Motors is a really great guy and he knows the market here, which saves the hassle of all the import stuff. Not to mention the current 25% exchange rate.

It's a great option but I would like to stick to the original paint look. I love the depth of the Vertigo or Cobalt Blue paint!
