One thing I've noticed about caricatures of the Puma, is that they don't tend to be that accurate. I've found this is particularly true with the ones that you find at car shows; the 'Koolart' pictures. I've previously e-mailed this artist pointing out errors, and was ignored.
More recently I came across another artist who does car caricatures, there were a couple of errors and omissions for the Puma pictures that he had on his site (mainly props were the only wheels available, and the yellow Puma was wrong), so I e-mailed this guy as well to point it out. I wasn't expecting a reply, but I got one!
The result is that I got an e-mail today to let me know that the Puma caricature range had been updated and expanded to include 9 spoke wheels, where there was previously only props, and the Millennium Edition:
There are eight colours available at the moment, which admittedly, isn't the entire range of colours that was available for the Puma, but Richard is very approachable, and prides himself on the accuracy of his work. So if you want me to request the addition of more colours, I can ask him. I doubt it'd be done quickly, as he's pretty busy, but he will put it on his to-do list.
