    To the original poster, I hope you get to see the colors you're interested in. Helps if the car is clean and fresh looking.

    You may want to pick out 2 or 3 colors you would be happy with. I used a process of elimination. No offense, but out of 9 colors, white, black and driftwood were out of contention.

    I had a little interest in Silver for its advantages, but doesn't excite me much. Silver Pine nice to look at but not for me.

    I'da bought any of the other 3 with gray interior.

    I have a new Seaside Pearl pkg 2--love this car even more than I ever expected, btw. This was my first choice in colors. To me, a definite lavender hue in what is otherwise just a very pleasant medium blue does indeed come out in full sun. Or is it my sunglasses?--hmm--I'll have to check. In full late-morning sun, Kent, Connecticut: it's not my sunglasses. I still see the lavender in the mix....

    I've had my seaside pearl for 5 months, and never for a moment has it looked purple, lavender, periwinkle, or anything other than blue. To me it's a real true blue, not greenish, not purple-ish.
