So seriously, though - what is the MoCo's rationale for not offering all colors across all lines? I'd think you could charge a few hundred extra bucks to get a particular color on a particular model - I'd be interested in knowing what it would cost to offer more color selections and what people would be willing to pay for a 'non-standard' color...

I think that is part of an expansion of the HD1 program that will eventually happen.
