I personally love the gold on blue, and while it does remind me of Subaru a bit, that doesn't bother me (I'm a fan of them as well). It's also so abnormal to BMW that it's just not something easy to get. Silver or black wheels are are easy all get out to buy aftermarket in plenty of styles. So I'd rather start with the gold and pick up some aftermarket gunmetals. I also have titanium/gunmetal wheels on my Estoril Blue 335, so I don't want the two cars to match too closely, so another reason for gold for me.
All personal taste though, so I totally get people thinking it looks horrible too! I wouldn't mind the calipers being something other than red... but I'll deal.
