Kind of a marmite thing I think, love it or hate it and I'm of the latter disposition - to my eye, it just doesn't work. I like the red with the black and it looks okay with the white but with a blue exterior, it just looks wrong.

Back when I was on the BMW management car scheme - I'd be sent new cars (e39s and e46s) every 4 months (due to my mileage) with all various interior/exterior colour combinations. These cars were always put together by the scheme management with max resale value in mind, so it was usually combinations such as dark blue/cream, black/cream, silver/black - the M Sport models were almost always black interiors apart from one 330d where it came with dark blue exterior and gray interior. I can't imagine they would ever put blue and red together. That said, it's a personal choice and if it works for you, what's important is what you think and not anyone else (except the other half of course!)
