The reason I think gold would have been the way to go would be because of one of the ride's main selling points: the records it's breaking. The mini-site for the coaster has tabs reading "Visions of Glory" and "Rise to Power," and the records page describes it as the "undisputed king of dive coasters." Themes I see resonating here are domination and victory. Gold and silver are commonly associated with winning and wealth, so they would be very appropriate for a coaster like this. Not like a cheesy cartoony yellowy gold, but like a deep, legit gold.
In terms of track colour: black, grey, purple, gold, pink, white haven't been used. Various shades of other colours would be great instead of sticking to primary red for half their coasters. I guess brown could work, just not with blue supports.
I'm waiting to pass judgement on the cooper/navy color combo until I see the actual structure. CGI renderings are tough at capturing color in its natural lighting environment - Diamondback at KI for instance came out a deeper red than what was advertised at the announcement.
I feel the actual track color could appear brighter in person, which would complement well with the navy supports. They are after all split complementaries!
