Since people are looking at this...

what do you think of red calipers on the IBM?? NIce or tacky?

I was planning to paint mine black so it wouldn't clash with the IBM....

It's nice, it matches the rear bumper lights.

The Electron Blue Metallic Z06s have red calipers and it looks just fine.

So was this rare? Because only white, black, and silver are listed as Spirit R's on the Mazda site.

Only 1500( Type A,B,C) spirit r's were made and most of them are grey, some of them white and black and only a few IBM, maybe less than 100. It's very rare.
