I think it looks great! Only thing that I'm not so fond of are the mirrors in Red as well, but I love the red accents and the main stripe as it ties into the interior really well. Nicely done!

If the mirrors are your favorite part then I would say leave them red. Ultimately the one person who's opinion matters most is your own because you're going to be looking at the car more than anyone else.

Beautiful car. But if I were lucky enough to own it, I'd see about changing out those wheels post haste.

I like the mirrors and the stripe but not a big fan of the piping. Beautiful car though!

It's interesting, and expected, to see how varied the opinions are on what looks good.

Appearance aside, now that you've had it awhile, what's it like to drive that beast?

It's incredible,the launch control on this 2 wheel drive is insane it takes a lot of neck muscles to keep your head up, the handling is also awesome much easier for me to explore the limits then my last z06.the attention was cool the first couple of days now it's a little embarrassing I have people getting out of there cars in traffic to take pics I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do (should I smile lol)....but like everything boys will be boys and I'm getting bored with it too looking for my next toy next spring!!

So you're not looking to be a rock star, huh? Hard to avoid attention in that ride. I'm having a hard time picturing what your next choice would be in the spring. Maybe this??

I got my eyes set on the 720s or a huracan....... the laferrari is a little out of my budget I can't imagine driving in a million dollar car!

LOL, I can imagine driving in a million dollar car but that's as far as it goes. Enjoy your ride until you get the next one.

Looks ricer to me. Needs ghost flames or ghost stripes. You can do better than a dumb vinyl stripe,, looks like you bought a kit at Auto zone
Sorry, you asked for honest opinions.

I think it looks good. I would ditch the vinyl on the mirrors also.

The 720 is insane performance wise.
