I really like the look of the 50th Sidewinder but when I look at the 17 Red/white combo I can't help but feel the red side panels are my preferred choice.

Yeah the red/white LEs in 17 were gorgeous no doubt. Easier then the white I will be dealing with!
One things for sure, in the winder vs other sled debate which always comes up...... For "looks",there really is nothing as sexy looking as these machines IMO. I dont mind the Poo for looks either, but DOO sure lost its way in looks dept.(G4)

The more I see different colors..the more I like all the different looks actually. If I could have gotten just the Orange and Black(no grey) for 18, I would have probably gone with that.
I love the red tunnel on the 50th this year though...definitely don't see that too often..decals sure..but not true red painted like the 50th is. The 50th grew on me and I decided to go with it. Haven't seen mine in person yet...so hope I like it as much in real life, as I do in the pictures here?
