    When I was looking at vinyl samples to wrap my Model S, my top picks were orange or teal. I waffled quite a while before picking 3M Atomic Teal, and I have not regretted. It is eye-popping vivid and gets a lot of compliments. I have shown pictures before, but cameras can't capture it accurately. I think it’s outside the normal digital color gamut.

    I have had contrarian thoughts, though, about just getting a new white Roadster with black interior like the 1st gen that I already own. It’s clean, purposeful, no-nonsense. Like James Bond’s Esprit S1. And you know, it’s gonna be noticed no matter what color it is.
