The color looked great online. I know it's personal preference, but I am curious from the people that have seen the combination in person. How does it rank next to the other combinations?

There's one running around your neighborhood. Let me know when you want to see it in person.

I have seen it once at the dealer. It is a bit in your face type of combination. Ok, but not my favourite...

seen aqua blue/white gold and that is fantastic, I think the red would work, ideally with the steel/red calipers to match, pccb/yellow starts to get a bit 'abstract art' for my liking

It's definitely "strident" but it's not bad. Looks better in person than in pictures, imo. One thing about the blue/red is it seems to have less of the lipstick-on-a-pig look in the front grill than some of the other red combos.

Of the red combos, I think grey/red is best. For gold, go with blue! PTS excluded of course...

I have one in blue and red, and would not change a thing!!! I have silver wheels, so it is not "full Superman" though!

I've seen it before. Normally I hate blue and red together, but it looked very nice.

I saw one and almost ordered one. It's my second favorite behind the Gray & Red
