elliptical with bar and spiral?

    Is the galaxy on the left an elliptical? It seems to have the orange colour of post collision, yet there is also a clear bar and spiral visible.

    The galaxy to the left is indeed a barred spiral. Just as there are blue elliptical, there are also red spirals.
