Crazy any vehicle is discounted in this market. This one is 7k less than sticker. I wonder if its the color? At first I figured it was used.

I think its the color combination. The tan interior is nice... but the more I thought about it its not that great with the yellow exterior.

Totally agree. That tan looks fugly against that yellow. Black prob best with the yellow.or red.

The tan looks great on a lot of the colors: infrared, black , white, nori, blue etc.

Yellow I think just fits with the black you don't really have other options... I toiled over this for a long time.

I suspect that they figured people would have wanted new color for interior so gave them both (I was certainly on the fence, but once you look at it long enough youre like yeah.... no lol)

Subjective opinions…..
Someone will buy it. I actually don’t think yellow on tan is bad color scheme.
There are convertibles here that have been sitting on dealers lot for a long while. I’m sure I can get some discount if I really want it. But NE weather is not suitable for drop tops half the year.

congratulations! You got the car you wanted! To me, that is all that matters. Yeah, waiting to do the first 1,000 miles is the hardest part.

i agree... i'm not even a big fan of the tan/caramel with any exterior color but i think it looks good with that yellow car.
having said that, nikachu, i have the black interior too and love it.

except there's no need to wait. "break-in" is a myth on modern cars.. they're hammered at the factory for one thing. i think car makers still have that in the manual so people get used to the cars at more reasonable speeds and driving before letting loose.

drive it like you stole it!

yea totally subjective. I think it’s fine. I just think it’s a less widely wanted color combo. I really was torn on which way to go. I went the safe route for me.
