Here's a picture of a custom paint job, but I like the light colors. (pic)

We were thinking the same thing, David!

I vote for Willow Mist Poly (metalic) WITHOUT skirts and Pacific Mist Poly with skirts although I'm not a fan of skirts.

wedgewood mist or pacific mist.
David, I too agree with light colors.
I lean towards Sahara Mist Poly with white roof.
The range has a lot of reds, blues, and greens - this would be a nice change.
You're actually correct on that, about the reds, greens and blues.
I was thinking the same thing but went with my choices anyway.
+1 -- I've seen them with the silver side trim which looks great with any color.
But in all seriousness, remember it is a station wagon. Not the family car or a limousine, it's a station wagon. They sit in front of schools waiting for kids. The normal colors are just what Mom wants to drive. Peaceful. These cars hide in grocery store parking lots.
I like the idea of one version without skirts.
