It's a much nicer color combo than the original red/white IMHO. Great snaps as always, John.

As noted, a far less jarring two-tone than the red / white version, and a beautiful model.  However in my opinion the best of the lot is the solid turquoise version.

I finally found one after a long search. Replaced the standard wheel covers with the spinner caps and WOW what a great model.

Very nice and different. Great pics! Always preferred the original Red/White issue.
