Not feeling that, seems too boxy.

Gotta say there are some nice deals on XSR's at the moment, but the new colours are lush. The red/black will go with my new lid :lol:

Looks a bit car/utility.

The angle of the pic doesn't help,plus it's not the perspective most folk would have.

Yup if the Mrs is still in work (and me!) I think one of them maybe the one. Need to wait a bit for deals on the new colours though

Love the white and red , similar to my N1, which od course is similar to the old TZ paint schemes.
I would have liked to do my 390 like that , but it's the wrong shape (too angular), and has an orange frame, so no :D
