Default New 2019 Colors In Production

When are the new colors for 2019, in particular Elkhart Lake Blue, to be produced? I haven't seen any in inventory or on order on the large dealers websites yet.

Looks like we are going to have to wait until after October 1st before we can see a car painted with Elkhart Lake Blue. Can't wait. Would like to see a Laguna Blue car next to a Elkhart Lake Blue.

You probably saw the original Laguna Blue on a 2014-2016 model, since the two colors look very very similar in the few sample photos we've seen so far. This is a panel painted in the new Elkhart Lake being held up to a Laguna painted car:

Color looks great... looks very close to Laguna... That's a great looking blue color in the sun light.
