If anything I would like to see some additional/different interior colors, including pure grey** for the passions.

** To me "grey" is a color; "Gray" is my progenitors' clan name.

The grey they are bringing has been qualified as a light charcoal grey, same as one of the newest MB color. He gave me the name, but it didn't ring with me. I asked "mouse" grey (gris souris), and he said "no, darker"... It's up to your imagination! It is so difficult to describe a specific color with words anyway.

Personally, that with a silver tridion would be a very "smart" looking smart. Than again I have fuddy duddy tastes for a 20 year old.

blah, im sorry but the smart colors are extra boring to me... i chose white for a clean classy look.. BUT if they had orange or baby blue, etc.. i would have gone with a "fun" color.

love some of the MBZ shades and others

such as pewter (I know not a pure grey, but popular), titanium (my Mazda3), and the 450's shade of grey was probably close to a 'medium' shade. To be honest, I like it because it hides dirt the best (between washes), is usually light enough to not absorb as much heat and shine's up real well when polished. I could see a silver tridion with some medium shade of grey combo as being pretty popular . . .

Glad I got yellow when I could

Triple-black was my original choice for colors.

At my wife's (gentle) insistence, I changed configurations to Y/B/B and I couldn't be happier with the color.

Glad I got it before it's gone.
