I was completely sold on creamsicle. The P4 was the same color as my first new car, a 1972 RX2. But P5 (and my wife) have convinced me of red hot. My first car, '65 GTO, was black...acres of metal. Silver would be my wife's first choice but she knows this will be 'mine' most of the time to and from work and I want high viz (for safety, of course! ).

No tinted windows for me and I'm in southeast Texas. Ugliest thing on a car is a window with white bubbles in the "lifetime guaranteed" window tint film.
And I'm with the plurality...Red Hot.
Bubbles in the tint means the person that put it on didn't know what he was doing, and used cheap film.

I originally wanted Licorice however I'm now undecided. I live just north of Houston and dark colored cars that stay outdoors have the paint just burn off after a few years. I have a black Accord that looks like hell even though I've always tried to keep it clean and waxed. Another factor the Elio is to have a dry process paint system (whatever that is) which just sounds more like an industrial coating than the shine of a BC/CC finish. I really don't think we'll see the shine of the P5 on production vehicles. Rocket Silver is my second choice but I'm afraid it will look like Battleship Grey so I guess I'll wait to see the actual production finish before making a decision.

Good point! Now I am expecting 3000 undecideds, LOL!

As long as sour apple is a bright obnoxious color I'm sticking with it. I need people to see it. I live in southern AZ and (trying to keep it civil here) during the winter months we have a lot of people with poor vision and enormous vehicles on the road.
