Again, I know Buicks aren't flashy, but make give us some color choices that aren't tailored for octagenarians.

First the Sonic, now this? What happened to color?

[ocnblu]

I wonder if this paltry colour palette (both here and on Sonic) has anything to do with Japon's disaster.

The only color I see missing are a Blue. GM just has not offered many blues in the last 10 years on many car in their first years.

I guess they could add yellow but I don't know if the take rate would make it worth while.

[Cubical-aka-Moltar]

The first 3 colors in the list are probably the top selling color choices in the compact FWD appliance category, so they are conforming to the market.

[hyperv6]

These colors are some of GM's most popular on most models. Most Lacrosses are these colors too.

I think if they could ad a dark deep blue it also would be popular. Blue always seems to be a second or third year addition to most GM cars.

[A Horse With No Name]

Ditto on the blue.

[balthazar]

The first 3 colors in the list are probably the top selling color choices in the compact FWD appliance category, so they are conforming to the market.

They're also likely the top 3 color choices in the RWD mainstream category- every BMW or mercedees I see is black, white or grey/silver; there's no reds, greens, browns or blues out on the road (light enough not to be taken for black in dim light).

The overall modern automotive color palette is depressingly conformist and limited.

[hyperv6]

They build the colors that sell. Dealers don't often buy slow moving colors anymore. If there was a greater demand for green and yellow we would have them.

Sometimes it takes odd things. If there was a yellow Robot in Transformers There would be a yellow Buick.

[frogger]

Dark blue, Dark gray are two colours missing that I would buy before any of the available colours listed.

[Paolino]

Damn. I'd love one of these in dark blue. I'm tempted by the mid-level trim...

I bet in a year in a half they will have a blue. GM seems to be playing the color game on their car more so than ever. They do a limited runs on colors and changed pretty regular anymore.
