I will wait until I see it in person, but that yellow is pretty awful looking.

Agreed. Doesn't pop like the RS-1 yellow. Probably better in person but still...

These cars look so out of place on Subaru lots.

It doesn't look the best in overcast conditions (not as bad as the old WRX color IMO, but still), but the color can really pop depending on lighting conditions. Here are a couple pictures I took of mine at night under different lights.

Great photos! Do you mind sharing the paint code for the Charlesite Yellow? I have a small project in mind and would love to have that code. Won't be picking my Series.Yellow up for another couple of weeks but want to get started on my idea.
