New Paint Colors?

[passion4audio]

Just wondering if Tesla plans on coming out with any new paint colors in the near future?

What colors would you like to see?

A new red like the Fusion Red of the Roadster.

A new red like the Fusion Red of the Roadster.

I would counter that they need more actual colors and they've already done red twice. Nearly the entire current line is shades of grey.

They currently have (and no offense intended here): white, white, grey, lighter grey, black, basically black, basically black, brown, and red.

I'd like to see some kind of blue (Aston's Cobalt Blue, for example), at least, or maybe a stand-out color like a copper or dark orange.

@Gizmotoy

You are right but they never made a more shining red like the Fusion Red of the Roadster. For me some kind of blue would be good too.

 

[Park2670]

I would choose a blue as well.

 

[Rockster]

I would choose a blue as well.

I used to have a 2000 BMW M-Roadster in Estoril Blue. I think that was a gorgeous color. I'd love to see an S offered in a similar blue.

My last car was a LeMans blue 335d. Loved that color. Id do it again if they offered it.

Hahaha; too true.

I think there is definately room for a few more colours; Since they have so many blacks, I would like to see a tastefully done quartz/purple shade like they have on the Lexus GS and Jags. +1 on the blue. Definately more blue needed, that burnt orange we saw a while back, and maybe a shade of beige or gold.

I vote against blue as a new paint color

 

[ElSupreme]

I would like a lighter green. A bright blue (sorry Laurent, your color is just too beautiful not to share :biggrin And a gold color as well. Maybe changing the brown to be a little less bronzey.

I still love my green though, it looks charcoal in some light conditions (very strong light, and very low light) but looks great, and green, plenty often.

Your color is my favorite I think. Hope they do that but just one shade off to keep yours unique.

Lighter green would be great too.

Completely agree. I am hoping that in the future some more "lively" colors will be offered. A dark orange would be awesome!

 

[andrewket]

I completely agree on the black, basically black, basically black comment. I really wanted something closer to cobalt, lemans, etc. Something that looks blue even if you're not parked outside in the sun at noon.

 

[markb1]

I'm pretty happy my basically black car.

 

[caddieo]

A very light and very pale metallic blue like the shade you see in glaciers.

 

[Johan]

I would love something like BMW's "champagne" (light goldish beige) for my Model X.

 

[SeattleSid]

If Tesla's blue were a little lighter, my wife would have insisted on it. Her car is a Miata in "tenth anniversary" blue, really a cobalt blue, and it'd look great on a Model S. The current Tesla blue is nearly black except in really good sun. Looks great that way, though.

 

[clmason]

Yes, more colors!

And while they are at it, how about a limited edition specialty series with unique design elements (nose cone, trim, badging, seat stitching, etc)?

 

[HankLloydRight]

My last car was a LeMans blue 335d. Loved that color. Id do it again if they offered it.

My M5 is LeMans Blue. I would give my left arm for a MS in LeMans blue.

And my right arm if they could do the interior the same way (Black/LeMans Blue leather).




Oh, and a few years ago, I used to own a Merc SLK 350 in Caspian Blue. In the end, I really disliked that color, because it looked black most of the time.

Just like my MS.

Yeah, I really want a lighter/brighter/richer blue. That Aston Cobalt would do, too.

Which colors are we getting rid of for the new ones? Brown and Green? Old Blue? Gotta dump some to get new ones.
