I think you underestimate how much people are not willing to pay $1,000-$2,000 extra just for a color, especially the price conscious folks. Us buying at the top trim LE sure no problem. We are all paying for what we want. This is evidenced by all the white Teslas when it was the free color and now all the grey ones everywhere now that that has been the free color for awhile now.
We are the "don't want to pay the extra". If the Esker was $1000....no problem, but $2,000 and up, to me it isn't worth it. We already have the R1T Gen1 Rivian blue....so we are going suburbia mainstream with the Esker.

They should have one of those Wheel-of-Fortune wheels with the various colors. You get one spin for free and have to take whatever comes up, or pay $1000 for another spin :)

At least then you wouldn't see everyone driving around with the same color like you do with Teslas.

That is an amazing idea. As I have stated in previous comments, where I work there was one time that out of the 14 chargers we have, there was one day that 13 of the 14 had Teslas in them and most of them where white and then blue and grey...there was 1 red one.

When I walk by I say to myself....I am so glad we didn't get a "California Camry"

Looks very similar to my Quicksilver Model 3.
The Black AT Wheels look Great with Esker. I personally think the lighter colors look better, really make the contrasting windows and trim really pop, that is why I went with the Glacier White. To me the Half Moon Grey almost blended in with the bumper, and the CC didn't have enough contrast for me anyway...

That's why my Model 3 is Ultra Red. Not many other people want to pick the $2,000 paint option :CWL:
