Red not the best color for Model 3?

Took delivery of Red with Aero wheels: The best combo! For me that is...to each their own...for me it was, as my daughter said, "go big or go home!" Going big was going red and I am more than happy with this choice, couldn't imagine driving another color

I love blue. I just sold a blue car. Blue looks great on the 3, in particular. I thought red was the right color for the S, and blue for the 3. But my dad has a blue S. Both my wife and I really liked blue but since it's the most common color, I was sort of leaning towards red for some reason.. even though I thought it looked better on the proportions of the S than the 3.

Pulled the trigger and couldn't be happier. The car looks REALLY good in red, I love it. Don't love the aero wheels, gonna put the cap kit on soon. Will tint the windows and probably get rid of the chrome around the windows somehow. Chrome door handles are okay though.

I like reds like the red on the original dodge viper, the '93 RX7, or the original Acura NSX.

Telsa's red has hints of burgundy or maroon in them, which always seems like and old man car color to me. It looks more mature, less fun.

I wasn't really into red for my car, but after a family conference, red was the compromise that kept most people happy. At the end of the day, it's *my* car and I didn't get either shade of grey that I would have preferred. All that said, I've had the car only a few days and I love it! I'm a convert on the red!

We love our RED Model S, and have selected the Blue for our Model 3, which we hope to receive in the next month or two. Opted to wait for the AWD version.
