I like the gray, at least in pics. Can't wait to see one in person. My 2010 Jake is battleship gray, and I love it. Of course, I was a squid for 6 years
I did not like the paint scheme the past two years. Not the colors really, but the scheme. In the store I thought maybe they weren't too bad. Then I saw one on the street, and it looked hideous.
