Holy crap! That's a great idea! Now that they've settled on colors, they could release the color codes and system they are using. We could all see the colors that way as well. In fact, I know colors look differently with shapes involved but in lieu of building a bunch of models, they COULD at least have color panels made up to have on tour. It could be on a nice board they put up next to the Elio. "Available in these 7 colors! (Y****w coming soon)"

EDIT: For Extreme obscenity... :p

Was watching Wheeler Dealers some time ago and they had an interesting scene at a paint shop.
The color samples were on contoured pieces that allowed you to see what the colors looked like on variously curved surfaces.
Since they were dealing with metallic colors it was more important, but still an effective idea
