Right. That prototype was a satin silver... not exactly what they put in production. BUT that’s exactly what it looks like wrapped in xpel Stealth satin PPF... like mine

Tesla dropped the colour option to start with because was, by a good margin, the second least popular Model 3 colour. The least popular was the one I picked, Obsidian Black Metallic, and that's the other one they dropped. Metallic blacks are actually very popular in luxury cars (silver isn't nearly so, in fact it's placement vs the other colours available was generally normal) but not in the Model 3. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The later might have been unpopular because it looks too close to the then free Solid Black, thus people concerned that it looked like they were driving the "cheap" Tesla?I am holding off to order my P3D until it is. It is the most popular color for luxury cars so I have to image Tesla will bring it back.
Metallic Silver is most practical color. I am concerned about his absence.
Unfortunately very few people ordered when available..../QUOTE]
Cybertruck has silver color only. Not popular?
Cybertruck is not painted
Elon said "Metallic Silver will still be available as special request", but it false for today.
sure, but you're in CA not NY... salt from the road makes black fairly ugly (my BMW is black).Silver was a very close second choice 4 me.
When clean, black is the sexiest.
Well... nobody didn’t buy them. Some of us bought them. But I don’t get it either. Silver is classic and timeless on any sporty car. I think the midnight silver looks terrible and will look dated in a few years. Likewise the blue. Both faddish colors. Silver, red, black, or white for me! Unless there’s yellow or orange someday...I'm shocked silver sold so poorly, now that more used M3's are available, I'm tempted to buy used solely to get my hands on silver. I've owned a lot of cars and silver always is the easiest color to manage, and given the "futuristic" style of Tesla from a technology perspective, metallic silver seems like the perfect color choice to emphasize this. hopefully they bring it back at some point, but still baffled nobody bought them initially?
