I have heard a "rumor" that Bowling Green is discussing letting the buyers choose other paint options. No I did not make this up nor did I dream it. Has anyone else heard this?

Authoritative information posted in several threads here is that the factory, as currently configured, will be painting the MAXIMUM variety possible. Any "rumor" as to how they would accomplish that?

I'm starting this rumor there will be a "Unicorn Rainbow Fart" color available, and that it will be THE most popular color ever.

I have heard a "rumor" that the Govt. is keeping little green men at Area 51. Has anyone else heard this?

Other paint options for the rear CF valance/diffuser....
Option to get it painted in the factory instead of at the dealer.
