Tinkering with Ultra Blue (opinions)?
Wondering what a red roof would look like with ultra blue. Haven't seen one of course, but I'm thinking it might look nice. I really wish Blue was offered on the "R" because I don't have a need for the "SVR" What do you guys think if this combination?

I would ask Jag for a sample of the ultra blue and the red fabric so you can properly judge the colours. The currently-offered red soft top is a lot 'redder' than that mock up, almost the same colour as the deeper reds in the rear lights, so is that red a new option with 2017 or the SVR? I think the original red would not work at all.
That darker colour is a lot better, but for me with very few exceptions I feel a black soft top is the only one that really works. (One such exception is the beige/caramel on a dark green car.)
If you opted for the part-black side sills/skirts where the lower part that juts out is gloss sparkly black then a black roof would tie in very well.
This ultra blue P7 has a black roof and shows what I mean about the skirts:

This, and he should know because his Polar White convertible has the red top, which I've seen. It is gorgeous w/ white, and it is a bright red. I think it would definitely look garish w/ Ultra Blue.

As Mshedden shows, the red roof is much more red and brighter than the configurator version. I went for it with Storm Grey, and was expecting a more maroon colour, but actually happy with the results
In the showroom, looks slightly darker than it really is.
In bright sunshine! Well, bright sunshine for the UK anyway!
