I like them all. I think the red I've got would look good on an SVR but I guess it's not available.

On the SVR, I'd go for blue.

[Quote}The "blade" spoiler is specifically for the SVR. The top moves while the uprights and trunk are fixed:

[/QUOTE}

Alternatively, it's called a "Devil Horn" spoiler. It's supposed to make the car faster if you race (more downforce). I've seen a very similar spoiler like that on a Honda S2000.

Whoops, my mistake. I thought you were referring to the SVR wing since it was pictured a few post above yours. The blade or wedge style wing in this picture is fixed to the OEM trunk and I would think that they would disconnect it from opening but I am not 100% sure.

I have Caldera Red which looks great with the black package and smoked Gyrodyne wheels.

I think the blue looks great as well but it was not available on MY2016

Blue is very eye catching, but to live with; has to be Italian Racing Red...if you could still get it!

Ultra blue. If it were available when I purchased mine I'd have gone with that. Best color IMO.

I’ve always liked black or dark grey colors on most vehicles...with the exception of having 2 previous dark blue BMW’s.
Didn’t think I’d get another “blue” when looking for the F-Type but after a great buddy of mine who said not to rule out the Ultra Blue, and after seeing it in person at the dealer I was awestruck by it. I don’t regret going with this choice...although any color choice on this car is amazing. Just be forewarned if you do go with the Ultra Blue...you will surely be noticed.
It’s a matter of personal preference. Recommend seeing each in person and then make your decision.

White would be my first choice in a colour but I am very happy with Caldera Red

A white object reflects all colors (as long as it is not activly transmitting light). A black object absorbs all colors.

What "true" color an object actually has can therefore be open to philosofical arguments
