I only know of three LE VP's: The Orange, Ice Blue, and Yellow. Were there others Limited Editions prior?
I would be interested in the forums opinion of the next LE if they plan to release one.

Thanks in advance.

I heard that it's going to be purple

Holy Vanishing Point Batman!
Thank you very much for this post.

I will make a wild guess. I say ....VP Demonstrator!

A demonstrator would be incredible, but my guesses are a purple or green

We have had green already.

Have we had pink?

These are the VP limited editions as per Wikipedia.

Mandarin Yellow - 1500
Red Carbonesque (Kasuri) - 1500
Ice Blue - 1500(?)
Orange - 2007

Thanks jmkeuning!

Wikipedia is not always super accurate, there are green ones and I think there is also a non mandarin yellow as well, a demonstrater probably would not work due to the brass inside, how about a deep brown kasuri design, similar to the colour of Havana?

Not the current metal one, but older models came in pink. Also decimo comes in Champaigne Pink smile.gif

It's not wikipedia, it's penpedia. If the info is wrong, go over there and change it!

If its red I hope its a different variation from this red.

They used to sell brighter red (FC-15SR-R) in Japan, but that one was discontinued. Some stores in Japan still list it on their sites.

I want a Black Pearl finish. Second choice, a marbled finish.

How about a two-tone VP? Say a turquoise 'body' (where the clip is) and a mustard-yellow top? Or a vermeil + lacquer two-'tone' ? happyberet.gif

I dig that black pearl idea! I can't say that I'll be displeased if they release a Ferrari red, though.
