R1S on order
This is bringing back emotions like the pricing debacle.

I'd like this many many many many more times if I could. Confirmation that the recent photo was suffering from some illusion or technical interference.
Well I think it's safe to say it's one of these colors that looks very different in various lighting scenarios and if you don't white balance your camera, you really aren't going to have an accurate representation.

It can go from greenish gray to egg shell blue and probably something more flat gray in the shade.

I have a silver Model S and I've always loved the way it shows the lines of the car. I was bummed that Tesla discontinued it as a color. The early silver model 3 also looks great.

I'm now 99% sure I'm not going with Limestone but if I see it in person maybe I'll change my mind.

Wow Rivian really taking one thing after another away.

What can we joke about now? The Limestone mystery was a comedy goldmine!

Personally, I'm waiting until we have a collective fit about the color of the standby light on the camp speaker.

Short version is you can't trust auto white balance on a single casual photo. Awesome to see the real thing!

Edit: Also, damn that looks good.

Wow Rock on!

This may really change community sediment.

Still, feels like this is the bare mineral amount of marketing communication that was needed.
