I have Corsair dominator Platinum 2800 4x16 GB, which lacks the special color and 400 MHz, but I paid $340 for it. I actually tried 3200, but I couldn't find any performance difference, so no point in spending 2x cash on it.
The industry went overboard a couple of years ago when they started putting RGB LEDs on everything. I think it's a neat effect, and if it were matched to a similarly colored copper/blue motherboard it would look great. Unfortunately, the industry abandoned motherboards that aren't gamer-y a few years ago, so a matching motherboard would never exist.

Depending what you're doing... the performance increase is so minimal.. may as well save your money!Lolimaster - Tuesday, May 16, 2017 - link

Looks like the Corsair Dolphins Edition.Flunk - Tuesday, May 16, 2017 - link
Looks like they're trying to simulate the way titanium exhausts discolor.That's really silly. I'm all for good-looking computer components, but they're just going overboard.

"Dominator Platinum Special Edition Torque."Christ on a cracker.
Apparently the going rate for RAM these days is about eighty bucks a word. This is one of the most ridiculous product names I've ever seen.

Same memory speed with better latencies could be bought in 2x16GB for $170 1 year ago. Stop buying smartphones.m16 - Monday, May 22, 2017 - link
This is an insane kit. For those few that can afford it, we're looking forward to some benchmarks.
