Mods, can the discussion of the new paint color choices be consolidated into one thread? Just a suggestion...
I am disappointed that Tesla's much touted new paint shop is not able to provide buyers with a reasonable range of paint color choices.
As of today there are only 7 colors: non- metallic black (no extra cost), Titanium Metallic (was "Warm Silver"), Midnight Silver Metallic (dark grey), Obsidian Black Metallic, Deep Blue Metallic (was "Ocean Blue"), and the long-standing multi-cost colors Pearl White and Red).
By comparison, BMW offers 11 colors for the 7 series, AUDI offers 11 colors for the A7, MB offers 14 colors for the S class, and Porsche offers 14 for the Panamera. And all those companies offer a light silver, whereas Tesla just dropped that color even though it seems to be quite popular.
Tesla can do better.
I was surprised to note that those manufacturers also offer what I consider to be limited color palettes in terms of the range of color tones. They are rather bland, but that seems to be the style these days. So in that sense Tesla is in line with other companies, and the Tesla Multi-Coar Red is an outlier.
