Looks good but will look better on a sunny day with the top down. These cars in convertible form look weird with the top up to me.

I disagree. I think it looks better with top up, probably because I don't really like verts. Nice car though.

Looks good. Red does stand out a little but it looks good. Black or silver would have been a better choice in my opinion. The wheels do look good with the ligts.
