Choosing a Color - Grenadier Colors in the Wild

[Loc Nar]

I'm struggling to decide upon a color and bet I'm not alone (currently debating Magic Mushroom, Sela Green, Brittannia Blue, and Scottish White). I thought it would be helpful to stake out a thread for folks to post high quality non-rendered videos of the different colors (and roof color combos) on the road, in the bush, etc. in a variety of lighting conditions.

So, to kick things off, here is a HD video of a Magic Mushroom Trialmaster in action that I stumbled across:

If you have found some similar quality videos for MM and the other colors, please share them here. Thanks!

Hi, Loc Nar, I find changing the background to the a snow scenery on the IA configurator gives a good contrast for the colours to stand out.

The best way is to see them in the flesh. I have seen a lot of the colours at a drive day, ironically except for the colour I've ordered ~ Donny Grey. To be soon solved as my dealer has got a Donny grey in.

Agreed and thanks, but that's still rendered as opposed to video of one in natural lighting.

That video is from our very own @DaveB YouTube channel. I don't know if you searched the threads but there are raw picture files of actual colors against a white background.

Awesome! It's a really fantastic video - all of his stuff is top notch! And thanks for the tip about the pics.

It should be top notch he “borrows” it from the IA website

Yea true but it shows up in my youtube feed which is all that matters.

I'm still torn - I am looking forward to seeing the white and MM in person. I'm a sucker for that silver though.

 

[ADVAW8S]

I was like you, I had ideas to wrap the car, what color should I get but I realized that I need is the MM with black roof.

I've seen that silver in the flesh in full sun. It really has a very nice light blue hue to it. I normally don't like silver cars, but if I hadn't gone with Donny Grey I think I would gone with it.

Looking forward to seeing in person....right now I am Donny Grey but also considering: White, Silver and Slate Blue

The white looks very good when you see the vehicle in person.
To me I wasn't impressed with the green or blue and haven't seen the mushroom

The Donny Gray is really metallic black

Dave - which blue? Or all 3 of them?

To be fair I could have gone with any of them, don’t think there’s a bad colour to decide upon. My choice edged it due to my geographical location.

I have ordered Shale Blue really because I've had silver and grey cars a fair bit over the years. My G Wagon is Flint Grau and my local dealer had a Donny Grey in. Looked at next to each other the Donny Grey is quite a lot darker than the MB Flint Grau flint grey. I don't think there's a "bad" colour among them and actually Scottish White the base colour looks fantastic. I never clean cars though and the white might look its best cleaned once in a while?

The Scottish White with the black roof is outstanding...maybe also because all the other black trim is creating contrast
