I know these are old videos, but I never tire of watching them. They are what sold me on DIB as my must have color for the GT350! :D

I'm hoping that Kona will look as good as DIB does with the depth and color changing properties when you get it in the sunlight.

Are you planning to get a MY18 Kona Blue GT350? I've seen Kona in person; I like it and it certainly does look different depending on the lighting. It's even darker than DIB. I think the depth really comes out in bright sunlight, but it's darker and seems flatter in the shade or at night.

This is Sagacity's 50th anniversary in Kona. With the white stripes, it provides a fairly good idea of what the GT350 will look like in this color.

Very nice! It is one of the colors I am thinking of getting. I loved the Kona Blue on the 2012s and am hoping to see a 50th at Carlisle this year in that color.

Came across these on instagram. I felt the shots were pretty striking, so thought I'd share.

I think the DIB page needs updates...
Great pics Chris! :thumbsup:

So you traded your non-R DIB for an R DIB? Awesome job finding the same DIB color and black stripe combo. Not easy to do for an R, especially in DIB, as it's one of the discontinued colors.

Right! Finding one with less than 20 miles on it was tuff! From what I gather from the 2016 numbers it's a 1 of 16? I was looking for over the top black stripes without the black roof, but apparently they only made 2.

I'd love to see a DI blue, Lightning Blue, and Kona, all with white stripes, lined up in a row to compare them. Seems like an impossible feat given how rare they seem to be around me though.

Me too, that would be cool. But let's not forget Grabber Blue and I'm also very curious to see what the new for MY'19 Velocity Blue looks like.
