Wow, I'll definitely buy that issue. Not to be a copy cat or anything FlyinLow89, but I am informing you ahead of time that I may just paint my car chrysler platinum! In my opinion, that is the best color I have ever seen on a thirdgen T/A. I have a question though - does the paint really have a goldish tint to it, or is that just your camera? because on your site, the pics in the brightsunlight look really silver, but the ones inside look a little gold. If the paint looks the same in real life as it does in the pics
then I definitely want to paint my car that color...

ITs great to see some of the nice cars on here get recognition in mags. If I had a scanner I would scan a pic of the page.

I think the goldish look in the paint is just due to the overtop lights in the shop/garage....?

Yeah...Its doesnt look that goldish, its an effect from the shop lighting. But it doesnt look exactly like the other pics either....in the sun the colour just glows and sparkles, its really nice. Thanx for the compiments guys
