Anyone in Phoenix with a Thundernight?

Wondering if anyone in the valley has gotten their hands on a thundernight car yet. Hoping to see one in person before going in on ordering one and hating it months down the road.

7 months of owning one and still love the color. Enjoy getting compliments like I did yesterday at gas station. Nothing like just staring at it parked in the sun after being washed.

I bought mine before seeing one. The pictures and videos sold me. I say go for it !!

I own a Thundernight car and here are my thoughts about the color.

The color looks fantastic! Really good! I get compliments about the color a lot.

My only problem with the color is that it's almost too flashy...too distinctive. Sometimes I just prefer blending in with a more common color.

And maybe this is more a reflection of my older age (I'm 50) because when I was in my late 20's I had no problem owning a bright yellow corvette that was flashy as hell!

I got thunder night and couldn't be happier. My other color choice was blue.. And I got the Portimao as a loaner and it just doesn't do it for me like the thunder night. It's a unique color, it's bold, and it's beautiful. Many compliments. It looks almost black in the shade or dark which is cool.

I'm in love. 😍. It really pops in the sunlight.

I ordered thundernight without seeing it first. My SA gave me a call as soon as they had another car in thundernight on the lot. As soon as I saw it, I knew I made the right decision. It's a stunning color.
