Sick

First I had silver/silver... then I changed to white/silver. I was sure I'd be happy.

But, I don't think I can resist the strange temptation to get yellow. After I get tired of yellow -- THEN what?

$810 plus tax for yellow. Less than two weeks to get a set. Life in hell. My plastic indecision may cause further global warming.

Be original. Mix the colors. Change every week. Six pieces (front, hood, 2 doors, rear and trunk) and three colors - virtually unlimited color schemes!

Just buy them all and rent the ones you don't use to your fellow smarties.

Just think of it as an investment. Just like the toys, if and when you ever part with her, you can offer the buyer a whole wardrobe to go with the smart! You are only adding to her value!

Saw one painted Merlot Red and black at our first meet and greet. And for about the same $800 there are a ton of colors, or mix the panels, add stripes or graphics...OK, I'm done!!

Why two weeks for the yellow? Or am I misunderstanding your post.

Look at it this way. Everyone is upset that yellow will be dropped!!!! So you will have a set of wanted panels. At our meet n' greet CLT 7 20 , mine was the only yellow one there!! N
Blue was the in color. Most pepole that stop me agree yellow was the correct choice. I myself really am not for yellow, but it seems to fit the car well!! lol

You and ShaneXman should get together, he's on his third set and eventually might switch to white!
