Choosing a Color - Grenadier Colors in the Wild

[BD1]

I honestly can’t decide. I’d like to order one with a red chassis and can’t decide that color looks best. Any thoughts?

Donny Grey, Inky Black, Magic Mushroom, Scottish White

I guess that depends on what feedback they've been getting from the current tour events. Is anyone strongly objecting to the current colour range?

Well, everyone's opinion on the color choices is understandably "in the eye of the beholder," but I was pretty open with an Ineos rep at my drive event and told him that while I wanted to like SG and BB, I found them to just be too dark, since they tended to bury the interesting black bits on the vehicle in all but direct sunlight. He agreed with my observation. I told him BB should have been called Midnight Blue. So, if we get some new color choices for the U.S. Market, I shall take full credit. Who knows, maybe we'll get this olive green:

Maybe I can help when it comes to SW and MM. I brought Sherman Williams paint samples cars to get a sense of the closet color. I thought it would help people. Keep in mind paint on metal will be slightly different. But you will notice that mega greige is spot on for MM and SW is more creamy or white flour

sw is more like a mushroom color than the mm

I would love this color green for the US market

I ordered it inky black without even thinking about it, but now I'm thinking of changing it to MM.

 

[ADVAW8S]

At the Swattle event, an Ineos person stated that an informal poll shows the number one color from the drive events is MM

 

[BD1]

This is not colors in the wild but the new canyonlands background in the configurator shows a darker Donny Grey vs prior backgrounds. With the new background it looks much more like what I saw in person....a darker color.

Sela Green Trialmaster, black roof - up close walk around:

I'm so sad they didn't have a Sela to walk around at my driving event. Leaning Scottish White but I know I'll see a Sela with a white roof and steelies in the wild at some point in the future and be crushed.

Yesterday i visit our local Dealer "Kruell Premium Cars" in Hamburg, Germany. The Most Cars are in Magic Mushroom, no one in "Queen´s Red".
I Take some Pictures of it, but i am still waiting for the Pickup (in Queen´s Red, because it´s look great and nobody has this colour ):

The inside-Pictures are from a Pre-Production Car, the original "Utility" Seats seems to be high quality, so that i am thinking about that i don´t need Leather-Seats (This Car was the only open one in the Showroom)

A little Construct with near the same Size to verify Station Wagon and Pickup:

Have a look at the wheel arch at the rear door to see the chassis extension.

 

[Deichrutscher]

I think the extension make it easier for the rear passenger to go outside without touching the doorpanels with their (dirty) shoes.

This was my impression by testsitting on the rear seat. Go inside was not a problem, but on the way out you are touch the panel with (great) shoes.
And my test was in a Station Wagon, not in the Utility Wagon. In the Utility you are sitting round about 10cm near to the front!

OK, just the Passengers - not my problem .

Great pictures! I collected my red one with black roof yesterday. The colour is really great!

Seems to suit it:

Brilliant pictures. If I was choosing again , I would pick a Fieldmaster in Seal Green with white roof.

Great combo. Debating whether to go with Scottish White and leather, or go cloth and get the Sela/SW combo with the savings.
