Jolt Yellow - is it as bright as in the brochure?
Hi - new here, and my wife is thinking about buying a new 2010 Jolt Yellow Yaris. We haven't seen it in person, only the brochure pictures and the color chip -- and have heard that the yellow isn't as bright as in the brochure. I saw some pics in another thread and at least there the color looks alot more washed out than in the brochure. Can anyone confirm/deny?
Thanks Dave |

I saw one, and I had a 78 Pinto that exact color. I loved it for about two weeks, then it embarassed me. Sorry if it hurts anyones feelings.

looks like a well faded version of yellow.... maybe the jolt after 10 years of sun soaking.

Hate how it's faded. It's like some kind of aged funky 70's muscle car color
To dave n: see if your wife would agree to a repaint to a brilliant yellow after purchase

The yellow is the same in Australia.. the promo pictures are way over saturated.

It's a pastel shade of yellow. I would've gotten the yellow if it looked like my '92 Sunburst Yellow Miata.
Oh how I loved that color. |

hehe, PK you remember that one :) (my picture)
Anyhow... zaino it, it and it'll look pretty much alike. Echo_hrs' yaris is much more of a bright orange than faded orange than it should have. right? |

Just call me Ray, better?

well i dont understand why the didnt use the same paint code as the 1g xb yellow, it would have been cheaper, and more of an eye candy
