Yeah it has become common but I’m not a fan of it, reminds me of primer grey.

Instead of yet another shade of grey to add to white, silver, dark grey and black, I’d like to see more actual colours including bright blues, oranges and greens, and maybe some deep purples or maroons.

Yeah I feel like 50% of the Dodge Chargers out there are this color. Ditto the 10th gen Civic Hatchback Sport.

Deep purples for sure. Merlin purple, lantana purple, something along those lines would be awesome!

The colors on the yellow and blue press cars look to be nods to original colors on the 240. The blue interior some have found atrocious was a rare offering on 115 blue 240Zs and is a little bit of a unicorn to find one today in good condition.

Well, it cost more, but I'm not sure it's really worth more.
