Buying a second M3 - stick or twist on colour ?

If you have changed Tesla’s then did you stick with same colour or twist for another ?

I’ve a white 2019 SR+ and looking to order either a new M3 or go ahead with my MY reservation.

Really happy with white 2019 SR+with black rims.

For a Y have ordered white again with Induction wheels

But If I go for another M3 think a shame to pick same colour again ??

What have others done ???

There are only two colours - red and blue - the rest are shades of grey

My wife liked to change colour on a new car so that the neighbours would know we had a new car

Just ordered a new Black Model 3 LR, to replace my 2019 Black Model 3 LR.

Black is not a colour, its a mood. Without the chrome it will be even blacker, good.

Without screen wash it'll be greyer

White for the first but so many are white now I was going to go blue, then spotted 5 within a 10 minute drive from my home, with one just down the road, so went with red.

Haven't thought about external colour, I'm not due for a replacement until Berlin's new paint shop, more choices.

White interior next time though, despite some reservations.

I had a blue MS and was going to stick with that for the M3 but I wasn't entirely sure - went to the Trafford Centre delivery centre to have a look at the options before I put my order in. Mind was made up when in a sea of Teslas there was only two in red.

I've got a blue one, there's only one problem - in the dark, you can't find the door handles! And it looks like you've never cleaned it, after one drive in the wet, even if you've just cleaned it.

I've had 3 M3s and have an MY on order, all the same colour: in my opinion the only decent colour Midnight Silver.

Anything except white. Almost every M3 I see is white. Far too common.

Nonsense. Nothing like a bit of rain to make the colour pop.

That’s two problems

Went from Blue to Grey…. Just for a change. Like both colours in different ways.

How very dare you!

Finding the door handles is worse in grey with the the black/dechrone handles.

 

[Doudeau]

Black/black to black/black for me.

I also find passengers struggle to find the handles now.

A significant driver for me changing was losing the chrome.

This might be controversial…… I think all but the black cars suit chrome better than the black as the black handles look (but not to touch) a bit plastic to me.

Went white for first car. Definitely grey next time - maybe mercury silver if that's a thing.

You can't even get to be original? And no it's not mine..

Yuk - not so much the colour, though it is a bit garish for my tastes - but the inside of a Tesla is nice and clean of all those buttons and switches and then you go putting a toybox of clutter on the dash!

I thought this would be the case and it use to be.

However around here, I see dozens everyday now and mine stands out as the only white one. In the last year, no one seems to be going for white.

Look at the photos of the Model Y's leaving china, white isn't dominant.

However... I am very happy everyone else is getting a different colour to me - all the colours are now common, except red.
