What do you Formula lovers think of the '05 Platinum Lazer color? Too much? Will it ba like another Firestorm? (I hear people got sick of seeing the Firestorms as time went on)

I personally have not liked the Formula paint schemes as of late. For me they are way too "busy". I think there is beauty in "simplicity".

I believe in the KISS approach, keep it simple stupid.....

If I could afford a new Formula, I'd order it all white. Then I could do what I want and not see myself all the time. (which I do with my Palm Beach graphics on Outlaw)

Eventually Outlaw will be white with very simple graphics if anything at all.

I don't like most of the new schemes either, and at first didn't like the Lazer. Now it's kind of growing on me and I'm thinking of picking that one. I think I might have to see the Lazer in the water. They get a hefty penny for the Platinum!

Yeah, it's definitely best to try to see what it looks like in the water and out.

Couple of years ago they offered the "Infrared" paint option which I thought was pretty cool. There's a 382 I see every once in a while down here and everytime I see it I think it looks as good as the first time I saw it. Looks better in person (to me anyway) than the brochures.

Which one exactly are you considering? I'd like to go into the Formula site and check it out. Russ

It would be the formula picture with the boat on the bottom of the two. The more I look at it, the more I like it. I just think they over did it with all the graphics on the bow. I may change my mind once I see it up close. I used to hate how the cigs painted their boat, but lately I've seen some incredible paint schemes by Gave Hunter. A lot of paint, but tastefully done. I'd love to have this Cig, but it's a liitle pricey and doesn't have all of the creature features the Formula does.

I think it's too busy, remove the dashed red and grey lines and it could be Ok.

And is it just my eyes, or is that black vinyl on the sunpad? WTF were they thinking??

I thought the same, but I usually have a towel on the back when we're back there anyways.

I like it! Black/red/gray is a great combination, IMO. I would change the sunpad to something lighter, though

DEFINATLY change the sun pad.

I like the bigger one in the forumula picture, the bigger formula, I dont like that orange scheme or whatever its called.
