Default Carmine Red with Black Wheels

I decided against red, but while shopping around I came across a local dealership with the attached build (attached below). Competitively priced, if anyone is interested, PM me and I'll put you in touch. It's my 2nd favorite color combo after green:

Tell me about it! I'm going to do a custom order, but it's a VERY sharp looking car and can be had for a very good price before the end of the year.

I saw one in person at my local dealer. I don't know why but it came across to me as giving the car a bit of a "toy" look. It looks cool, but not sure it would age well.

My Taycan is Carmine Red. It was probably an isolated incident, but the paint quality was poor on delivery. The white plastic had been put on the car too soon after painting; the car was likely among the last to go out before COVID lockdown in Germany. There were “worms“ in the clearcoat, a lot of haze and scratches. It looked ok, but looked really good after an 18-hour (two guys for 9 hours) paint correction and ceramic coating. The color pops in daylight but isn’t too loud, at least IMO.
