I got 302 colour (color?) inputs this morning, time to publish a small update:
View attachment 7823864

View attachment 7823865

How did I collect? From the polls some months ago (April?), and since then every time I saw somebody revealing his favorite color I wrote it down in my file.
With 57 inputs for North America, this begins to be somewhat relevant.

Shale blue is the colo(u)r that surprised me the most in person. Loved it! I narrowed it down to that, red, and green, but 💚 won out. 😁

Yes, I do keep second guessing myself.

I wavered between shale and Britannia with a white roof. Ended up with silver. Yea I chickened out. But will say the black bits pop out in silver.

The silver is quite unique in that it really does take on different shades depending on its surroundings and ambient light. A good choice.

Hi Norb, The Sterling Silver is actually a light metallic blue in the sunshine and a light silver metallic if overcast outside. I have a 2020 New Defender in Indus Silver
and it does not color shift like Sterling Silver does. I really like the color shifting of Sterling Silver as every time you view it, it's like having a new Grenadier. DaBull

I ordered Shale Blue - will initially reside in Chicago and N. Michigan and eventually SoCal (Fall 2025) will replace Chicago

Hi Trailmaster - Shale Blue will look good against the Pacific Ocean. DaBull

Agreed with the comments around Sterling Silver, first time I saw it at the agents, my first thought was, what colour blue is that ??

It is like Dabull says, having two cars.

The colours they have chosen really do pop when seen for real as against a screen shot etc.

Initially I wasn’t that impressed with the colour choices offered, but having seen all of them numerous times now, I don’t think there is a bad one amongst them.

I'm usually not a big fan of metallics, but that shale blue looks like it's on another level from all the other colors. it exudes so much and provides great contrast. I don't think many knew this before they ordered unless they saw it in person or saw the right video or pic.
