Haven't seen/found much on this here but was playing with the configurator and there it was.

Read the Motoringfile article and wondering if anyone knows anything else, in particular, how 'silver' is the piping on the upholstery? I'm thinking it's more Pure Silver/goldish champagne tone.

Anyone seen it IRL?

 

I saw the sidewalk edition at the Detroit auto show.

Over all very cool color concept.

I nearly forgot there was a trim color.

The silver is almost sand in color it really compliments nicely

i am gonna guess the exterior color will have an impact on how white, silver or tan the trim looks

 

The Sidewalk is a very competively priced. The brown leather is stunning. Now add the wheels and the other extras and you have a future classic. I would opt for the black for contrast, but BRG and Sparkling Silver are both nice.

 

Anybody take delivery of one? I would love to see pics.

They don't go on sale in UK until Apr. 17 . . . so I'm guessing that they won't hit the streets here before then (although dealers are taking orders for them now) -- but this is just a guess.
