If my current car wasn’t a very similar silver color I’d be looking at getting this especially since it’s $0. But alas Forest green is IN!
I hear ya! I love the color -- my last silver car was a 2013 VW Jetta Sportwagen TDI. I loved that car, and rarely washed it because it never looked dirty. But I've never had a green car before, so Forest Green for me.

I'm calling BS on the 1980 photo. I'm old and was just beginning to drive then. There was a lot of brown vehicles the. When I say a lot. I mean A LOT!
I had a beige car in 1980. Beige isn't brown, is it? :D My parents' cars in the 60's thru 80's were light green, red, yellow, dark green, brown, and another brown. I think they went with all white cars after that.

In those days I think black was only allowed for police cars and hearses.

One of my favorite color cars I owned was a Jeep Liberty in Bright Silver. Esker might be my choice for R2.

Those pics remind me of the silver on my 21 Mockey. That year Ford changed their silver to have black metal flake and it really created some great visuals along the body contours.

I'd say the photo is somewhat accurate...

They should rename it El Boringo.
I'd take it over something like Launch Green, and wouldn't even have to pay $2,000 extra for the luxury. Launch Green reminds me of the cheap plastic from my old G.I. Joe vehicles and plastic Army men I played with in the 80s :D

Which frankly is why I kinda want it. 🤣 Well…that and I can’t get a Red Canyon or Rivian Blue R2 😥

R2
Green is considered boring on this forum bc many people have or had R1’s and it’s still an available color today. For those of us who came from Tesla or just about every other car manufacturer, green is unusual, fun, and cool looking. However, outside of purple also I don’t think any of the Rivian colors are unusual…they’re pretty normal. Which is why a lot of propel are upset about the mundane choices!

Red Canyon is so nice in person. I went with Limestone but saw the Red Canyon with the sun hitting it and I was like wow that would easily be my second choice.
I'd rock the hell out of this!
