Default Torch Red vert with grey top

I'm thinking about ordering a 18. Does anyone have any pics?

^^^ That is the first I have seen it. I think it doesn't look as good as the black. The black top matches the grill and also the other black accents and just simply flows better.

^ Agree. Black top ties everything together...

Obviously a matter of personal taste but not a combo I would choose.

Not feeling it-black top would be my preference.

Looks like it faded.

I think it looks good. The black/red is everywhere. I do worry about the lighter top showing creases and dark stains. I had a 08 atomic orange/tan vert that really looked great but the top showed wear.

Have heard said on these forums that light colored tops tend to show creases after awhile that are nearly impossible to remove. A black top won't do that.
