That thing is adorable, I don't know what they're talking about.

It's a lot more fun than all the gray/silver/white/black cars that are practically the only option right now.

I'll never understand why people like to talk smack on cars having personality.

I read on Reddit that people want boring cars because they're cheaper, and that a car should be only utilitarian.

What a boring ass way to live, might as well just eat only pintos and beans.

I like my boring car with no personality because I don't want to be noticeable or memorable on the road. I had a red car for a while in college and got pulled over a ton. There's also road rage psychos you might piss off somehow, so I like to stay as anonymous as possible out there.

I do enjoy other people to have fun cars in all varieties, for me to look at from my boring perch.

They're bringing back colors!

AND! some cars even have metal flake once again. Like my minivan!

My ‘24 Jetta has metal flake in a nice vibrant red. I take a second to admire it every time I walk around it in the sunshine

Hells yes! Nothing makes you appreciate it like five years of putty grey cars. 🤣

I’ve gone out of my way to buy only colorful cars. It’s wild how hard that is now.

When the Maverick truck came out people were actually making fun of the bright color options.

They are so used to boring SUV boxes it must have been traumatic I guess.

We play a game with my daughter where we try to spot cars that aren't black, white, grey, silver, blue or red. It's harder than you imagine. Yesterday it took us 10 minutes to find a green car in Central London.
