Dude has the courage to do it his way. His money his choice.

I ordered the lemans blue or whatever it’s called with red interior. I really don’t care about anyone’s opinion or resale.

The sheeps will see themselves at every car show, every red light.

Now I'm interested in seeing what this combo actually looks like...
Red and Green?

I don't think "complementary," in this context, is very "complimentary..."

Yep... and who would think purple and yellow go but I've seen it quite a bit and it's stunning

My order is sending orange with the side intake painted body color as well. Two tone red seats and yellow calipers with gray stripes. Unfortunately I can't upload pics.

Looks to me like a millennial designer just discovered a 32 count box of Crayola's. Or a boomer having flashbacks..

Lol, it had to be flashy parked beside my Memphis Red McLaren. Besides it is inspired by a speciale or huracan evo.

That color combination seemed to work ok for McLaren with their Can Am cars.

Have to admit, though, that it is a unique looking combo on the C8.
