Wheatland yellow is certainly a favorite of mine as well but the purpose of this poll is to survey owners for the original color of their K5 not what color they prefer.

Now with an excess of 100 responses it's interesting that five colors account for ~2/3 of the total (ochre, white, med blue, med green, and red). Thanks for your responses.

**SoCoC10** · 05-14-2017, 11:42 AM

I'm gonna double the number for Black, Midnight!

I don't know, what color is it? Oh, there it is 525.

**DeadheadNM** · 01-23-2018, 11:33 PM

See the "F" in VIN? In this case it means funky

Color is grapefruit (light) yellow RPO 525.

**davischevy** · 01-23-2018, 11:55 PM

I just though it was interesting that the code was not followed by a name.

**SoCoC10** · 02-14-2018, 02:08 AM

Green Monster · 02-14-2018, 05:49 AM
