Looks awesome! Way better than the old timer mustard seed yellow of last generation.

@jagamajajaran how's it look in person? Seems extremely light dependent. Does it look like a super bright/light yellow, or does it cast green? The overcast videos/pics have it looking green, but I can tell a difference between my laptop screen and my phone screen. Phone makes it look more green.

Overcast day and it definitely has a green tint to it. My pics and video are from two different devices, but they both look to me like they picked the color up correctly.

I wonder if this will attract bees and wasps the way the old C5 Millennium Yellow did.

Bugs in general, couldn't wash it fast enough without some small critters landing on it - maybe they thought it was a big flower?

Help me out Forum members....I can't find the option to have the black or grey shadow on the DOOR above the rocker panel.
I've seen it in many pictures {tried to paste a link but didn't work} and still have not figured out the option code.

Looks good, I'm not so sure about the yellow calipers though.

I'm with you there, I like it better with the black side intake, and black rear vents. I went back to the configurator and looked at what the z51 wing would look like in black.

The all yellow look just doesn't get it. Most definitely needs various bits and pieces to be black. W/o contrast, AY just plain sucks IMHO

A couple of these hanging in strategic places ought to do the trick.

Yes, it's metallic.
