If they replaced one flashy color with another, so be it, but the gray thing was already covered. And I personally agree with the other poster who said this car deserves a flashy color to begin with. For example, I like how the Dodge Challenger uses some flashy colors that you just don't see other places. I'm not sure I would choose lime green or purple, but at least I notice them go by unlike the mass of mononchromatic blacks grays and white that 90% of cars have.

Money talks, they build what sells and too many people buying a new car value safe choices and resale value. It's understandable, just a damn shame we're in that phase of design now, things are shifting, in a few years I think we'll start seeing interesting colors again but it's a hell of a draught right now.
