I remember being struck by the beauty of the Manhatten Blue when I first saw it. I'd never seen a vertical burst and thought that maybe the photos were creating the effect until I saw one at a local store.
Mine's an '04 Santa Fe Sunrise. It sounds killer on top of its looks! I wasn't in the market to buy when I saw this, but I've always been a sucker for a pretty face. This color, along w/ the Black Cherry have an unusual quality - the wood takes the stain unevenly and even good flame isn't "alive" like on a regular burst paint job. I don't like it so much on a lot of the Limiteds unless the flame is really good.
Anyone know more about the method of stain/finish on the Sunrise and Black Cherry models? Next to my Historic, this is also the heaviest of my LPs.
