First car I’ve ever owned that was a color—I’ve previously owned three black BMWs, one gray BMW, one gray Acura, and one beige Toyota. It’s a little shouty (hence the all caps in the header) but I quite like it.

I recently made a similar jump! I’ve had grey, beige, black, silver, and dark blue...I don’t consider dark blue to be anything worth noting as it’s essentially black. My current daily is a bright ass red fiat....excuse me, a Rosso Abarth as the cool kids say

Nice! I’m on the other side of the fence, as I have owned one black car but most of my cars have been/are the “loudest” color available: Phoenix Yellow, Tornado Red, Sepang Blue...

How does the SQ5 drive?

Stupid torquey and quick for what it is, stiff enough to feel confident flogging it, tighter in the corners than you’d think for the height, paddle shifts are quick and precise, gearing is predictable but maybe too close...8-speed might be one too many if only because I find myself shifting ALL the time. My one complaint is the steering, which like nearly all electric systems is precise and predictable, but feels light even if you're wailing on it and essentially offers no feedback at all.

Nice, and yeah most reviews complain about the steering.
