I got over my grey wobble and have ordered a blue one. Should have it by end of next week.

Sensible person

White only as this was the only car that was showing for a Feb 22 delivery else i would have had to wait for a few more months. Otherwise I would have chosen Blue i think.

If I could choose I would go with the white one. In my opinion it has the cleanest look (there is a reason why the original concept was white) and has the best contrast with the black parts. I will end up getting yellow cause it was the only option that didn't come with an 8 months waiting requirement. The blue color is a nice one too, but all the dark colors don't have the high contrast with the black parts which makes the car look more subtle.
White = clean;
Yellow = bold;
Steel, blue and black = stealthy.

In the beginning there was a chance that we could get yellow one for very good price. I don't like it and my wife hates it But we would buy it anyway and film wrap it in colour we would like (maybe even red).

To be honest, the only color I have seen in metal is blue. Yellow is probably the most difficult to get from photos. On one photo it looks like a lemon, on another like a lime. So I am getting one without knowing how I feel about the actual color.

Anyway, if the price is good wrapping a car is a valid option. I am considering 3M liquid copper wrap in case the charged yellow will turn out to be something I wont be able to digest.

Wrapping a small size car costs around €1,3k in case someone is interested. A wrap not only gives you a color you want but probably will never get among the fifty shades of grey most manufacturers offer, but it also protects the actual paint from damage. My girlfriend has a Toyota IQ wrapped in ironman color(s) for more than 3 years now and it still looks amazing.

The charge yellow is not too bright. Some pictures on autotrader are over saturated and make it look really bright, which it isn't.

I would say the colour resembles a UK ambulance - it's not too bright. A bright colour perhaps, but not too bright in itself.

Our test drive was in yellow one. To be honest if I wouldn't know I would add some green shade into charge yellow name

the charge yellow has some endearing characteristics: (i) you can spot it in a car park from 3 kilometres way; (ii) you never walk down the road and walk towards/try to unlock the wrong car...
My wife hated the yellow/green and said she "would not be seen dead in it" but now loves it. Other than an unrepeated few days of the apparently common window up-down indecisiveness, the only problem now is she's always driving it...

I only considered the white and the yellow.
My wife only liked the white, so white it was.
No regrets.
