Default What's the difference between Spa and Rio?

Saw a rio today downtown DC. Looked sweet! Is there a difference between the two colors or just a name change.

It's a fairly minor diff. The rio has more metalic flake and looked like a very slight tone diff, but that could have been the lighting.

It would be hard to tell the two apart from a distance.

They're both race tracks.
One's in Brazil.
One's in Belgium.
There's an ocean in between.

That's the difference between the Rio circuit and the Spa circuit. I hope this helps.

The Rio Yellow is driven by Hollywood celebrities. The Spa yellow is for college students.
