What is the name of this color scheme for the 2-11?

Hi Guys

I almost ready to pull the trigger on an NA 2-11. A couple of quick questions: What is the name of the color scheme of the car used to intoduce the base / NA model (see pic below)and do you know if it's available when ordering the car?

Thanks

-Joao

There is no offial (animal-)name for this. It's a custom paint job based on Isotope Green (Autosalon Genf).

You should be able to order this combination as a custom paint job .. I asked today a dealer a similar question - if I'm right the costs for a custom paint job like this should be the same as the other decals (Initial Launch, Green Dragon, Yellow Hornet ...)

That's the Geneva launch car colour scheme. It's a non-standard option, but show the dealer the pic and they should be able to help.

Thanks for the advice guys

I think that's the Dragon Green colour scheme

[Bibs]

Green Dragon is like this...

I think that's the Dragon Green colour scheme

No,

Green Dragon = Paint: Lotus Racing Green/Arctic Silver and Decals: Lotus Sport Yellow/Arctic Silver

Edit:

Bibs .. don't do that to me

I stand corrected! Although I did see a lime green one just like it in the car park at the 60th bash at Hethel and thought the colour didn't do the car any favours at all!

That's the Geneva launch car colour scheme.

Bibs - are you sure? Mine is "Geneva Launch" and looks nothing like that. [Note quote justified by 5 intervening posts ]

Hint - mine is the one at the front!

[Edit] I refer you to your post of yesterday in the Livery thread.

Castle Combe? I always thought yours was camouflage!

The one posted in this thread is the colour scheme of the car which was used to launch the NA 2Eleven at the Geneva motor show this year. Yours is the initial launch colour scheme of the original supercharged car at launch in 2007. Sorry, should have made it clearer.

Tis indeed the Combe - on one of my non-disguise days!

Thanks for the clarification. I guess we have to hope Lotus don't come up with any more induction methods (turbo for example) otherwise there will be yet another "launch edition".
