My last four cars have been charcoal, silver, silver, charcoal, so there's a pattern...I thought I loved the midnight silver but after seeing a silver P3 with white seats, I'm ruined. Silver is really the only color I love, and doesn't appear that option is returning. I'm searching for used but really want a new model. Anyone else buy one not loving the color but the car is so awesome you got over it?

White - looks great with white seats, but I always think white cars look best on japanese cars. white BMW's, Porsche's etc. always remind me of my white Turbocharged Integra I had in high school!

Red - also looks great, but other than a Ferrari convertible red always looks like a girl car (sorry!)

Blue - torn on this one, I haven't seen enough in real life, looks good, but I wish it was more of a navy, I'm almost 40 and it just feels like a color for someone younger, as it's a bit bright. Another throwback, reminds me a bit of BMW's Avus Blue, my dream car in high school. The "other" M3...

Black - always a staple, but I had one black car, and swore, never again! So hard to clean...

Charcoal - not only do I already have a charcoal car now, SUV I will keep, the charcoal seams a bit flat with too much purple in it. Not sure what's missing, a richer hue with more metallic I think...

Lastly, with such a narrow color range, which I know they are doing for manufacturing efficiency and margin, and sales increasing overall, I'm worried the colors will also quickly get played out. The cars have so few options to begin with, limiting the colors creates even more of a homogeneous vibe...

Alright, can somebody slap me in the face and get me over the color hump???
