Why o why will Porsche not put grills on the front to protect the radiators and it would look soooo much better - even offer it as an option at least. Also the pepita seats clash, could do better there.

It looks to me like it does have grills on it covering the radiators.

Looks a little like the classic Arena Red without the metallic.

Obviously...
All of the sudden this thread makes me think of when my wife comes back home with 20 wall color chips and asks which one I like. To me they all look the same, I always lose that battle. LOL

Funny thing about that McDonald's car...

Back when I regularly participated in the Planet-9 forums I learned something about this. I think in North America we're inherently biased against it because of the obvious McDonald's association but it seems that in Asia it's considered a perfectly nice combination and isn't all that uncommon.

Someone there spec'd his car just like this and most people found it hideous but an interesting conversation came of it and it definitely changed my perspective on it.

I mean... I still think it's hideous... but I now understand that the people who spec them aren't necessarily just people with horrible taste in aesthetics. There's definitely a healthy dose of cultural bias involved.

That Pascha Red car actually looks quite a bit like my Mahogany Brown Metallic car.

Yep. If Mahogany Brown Metallic wasn't metallic or brown and instead was burgundy then you'd be spot on!

Yeah, not for me. Better than the Mc. Donald's car but not by much.
