I think the Cyber Orange takes them out of a drug-like dulled state of reality that comes from:
Gray car
Black car
Silver car
White car
Gray car
Black car
Silver car
White car
Gray car…..

Don’t get me wrong. When I ordered mine, I was looking at Black, Gray, Red and Cyber Orange.
I put it to my friends and family. They ALL LOVED the Cyber Orange.
The only reason I didn't get cyber orange was that I didn't want to spend the extra money, since I liked grabber blue a lot as well. Now, if they had purple, I probably would have paid extra for that.

I had to make the decision when I got mine, I knew both cyber orange and grabber blue would be attention grabbing, and opted for anonymity with shadow black, and then space white. When people actually notice, then they are interested (and have had a LOT of "Oooo I like the color!" with the space white). Also I know when driving I see a lot of vehicles I give second looks to, and have even snapped a couple pics, but nobody would have known, so I assume I get a lot of looks that I don't know about.

But if I was trying to pick up guys over 60, this is the vehicle to have! If there’s an old man within 10 feet, they’re gawking, and if I stop, they’re flocking and then talking, and asking every question imaginable (hey, it’s how I ended up with mine in the first place! ?)

Just got back from the store. As I was going through the lot an old guy was coming out of the store, probably has neck problems from owling my vehicle as I went by. Then after I parked, there was another old guy in the car next to me. As I got out, he did too, and started complimenting and asking questions, which gave the first old guy an excuse to cut the lane and join us. Finally, one more old guy was passing buy and had to join the fun. I gave them the tour, showed them the frunk (it was a big hit) and the interior. The funny thing is, none of them even knew it was an EV, they just liked it, now they like it even more.

It’s not the first time I have had this happen, seems like everywhere I go, if there is an old man around, they are coming over to check it out ?

Oh and full disclosure, I’m 62, so not being ageist.
I am almost 68 and I agree! Men of all shapes and sizes!!! I guess I should lend my car to my single friends…. Business opportunity?

Bad sample. I get coffee at a place that's next to a yoga studio with a large female clientele. I've gotten several complements from women the same age as my daughters. I've not attempted to pick any of them up.
All depends on location yes. First compliment I got about the Mach E was from a woman nearing her 70s, who used to own a Mustang when when she was in her 40s. Noting that’s quite rare here in The Netherlands.

I have seen an attraction for Mach Es in young moms who hate to leave their Mustangs but have to deal with car seats.

It’s unfortunate, but so far, most woman
Won’t give the car a second glance. Even cyber orange paint doesn’t really help.
You mean women aren’t attracted to school bus yellow, no matter how you rebrand it? Who would have guessed??

Be careful of your back, if you DO try to pick them up. :)
He said yoga studio. They shouldn’t be too hard to pick up. Just be sure to ask permission first.

Well, regarding the color, I live in a senior community, and get complimented every time I park the car. Once even by someone under 40.

Shadow Black is classy, but it doesn’t grab attention like Cyber Orange or Grabber Blue. I am happy I don’t have Grabber tho.
I've only seen the grabber blue ones in my area so far... or the other colors just aren't grabbing my attention.

I've only seen 3 other MMEs in my area since I got mine. There's a red one, another white one, and a cyber orange one. My previous one was black so that was 4 colors but now that I have space white we're back to 3 ?
