White and dakota red is always nice, but to me it's too common now, it's the go-to exterior color for people choosing Dakota Red.

I've seen a number of people here do Estoril Blue + Dakota Red and I think it looks excellent, and is different. SuperMan color theme.

Really like the Alpine White/Coral Red combo

That's what I ordered. Looks really sporty in M Sport guise.

not me

My favorite color combo has been the melbourne? red with the coral red interior. Not my car mind you which is the "go to" color combo as previously mentioned, but I was pretty impressed by the pictures someone posted on here of their red/red car.

Mineral Grey with Dakota Everest Grey is what I went with, and I think it's awesome:



I also get tons of compliments on it, even at the dealership. I've had multiple people who work there compliment me on my color choice.

I would have gone for that Everest Gray in a heartbeat, but the M-Sport option limits the choices to Black, Beige/Tan, or Coral Red. Tired of black, beige/tan is too blah for this car, so red was the best alternative.

Same for me, but you can't get the blue stripe with brushed alu trim - do you mean the hexagon trim?

Does the cinnamon brown dakota come with any F3x trim? I've noticed it on the F1x lineup and it looks amazing.
