Here's mine.....Careful with the two-tones....I heard they overheat and aren't as fast......Something about the way the temperature changes form one color to the other causes turbulence and disrupts the airflow to the motor....They look great but who wants to have those problems

Here is my crimson RG. I think the crimson is even better looking in person because the gold flake in the paint does not show up well in photos.

The Crimson red usually looks too brownish in most pictures if it's not in the sun. But wow! When it's in the sun, people love it. And so do I.......

I had originally ordered my RG in Candy but I happened to see a Crimson model at the dealer and after he wheeled it outside into the sun I changed my order on the spot. Both great colours.

I ordered this color never seeing it in the sunlight.

I think it looks much better in direct sun light.

I hope this helps you. It is tough to spend 20,000

and not be sure you will like the color.

Only 1 picture could be added. If you want more

email me and I will send some.
