Okay what's different in this picture? Two things are different. The paint is lighter and its wearing a set of 10-spoke Shelby wheels. Arlie Photo-Shopped (tinted) the photo to more correctly match the shade of Gulfstream Aqua that's on the car. This is a difficult paint to photograph. Arlie also edited in the wheels to see what they looked like. That's much easier than physically trying them on! The only give-away on the editing is that both wheels have the exact same lighting. Arlie has since changed to the 10-spoke Shelby wheels for real.
