Default Color Choice - Pangea Green

Hi all,

Getting ready to place an order tomorrow for a 2022 Dynamic X. Planning on ordering Pangea Green with black top. For those that have gone with Pangea Green, have you grown tired of the color over time? I’m somewhat concerned I’ll be bored with it in 6 months.

Thanks in advance,
Jordan

Had ours since October. Still love it. Don't see that changing.
I sometimes wonder if we wouldn't have liked a white roof. But with the black pack and black wheels (no white wheels available for the P400) the body color roof is fine.

Years ago we had a Mini Cooper with white wheels and roof and it was sharp.

I can see the black roof being nice too, but just couldn't justify the price when literally half the roof surface area or more is the sunroof. Then again I might have softened on that since. It looks good.

Truthfully the green and black makes it look like something the Master Chief from Halo would drive.

That's a plus to me.

I’m almost two weeks in and still loving my all-green-with-piano-black-accents P400. My only other fave choice would have been Tasman, but it doesn’t pair well with the khaki/ebony interior, which happens to be da-bomb.

I like the pangea and test drove a first edition 90 with it. Thought about it for a while. Green is nice because it's different, it is a lighter shade though. Like the darker green on a Stelvio for example looks amazing to me personally. Still the Defender is a looker regardless, you really can't go wrong in any color IMO.

Loving my Pangea. It is different enough without being high maintenance. I generally hate dark colored vehicles because of dust and swirls. It is like living with a grey vehicle without it actually being, you know, grey.

I have the white top, white wheels, and no sunroof with Khaki interior. It's perfect.

I'm 5 months in owning my Pangea D90 and still think it is a great color, really glad I went with it.

Six months with mine and I still really like the color. Like others mentioned, you get the easy maintenance of a silver car without it being silver/grey, which seems to be the color of every car on the road. I have the white roof and color matched my wheels and love how it’s different than everything else out there and it definitely stays cooler in the sun (no sunroof). I avoid dark color cars like the plague after having a black car once. Never again unless I buy a detail shop.

Thanks for all the feedback, Pangea Green it is! Now just waiting to hear back from the dealer on whether the build I put together can actually be ordered at the moment.

I’m also 2 weeks in and loving my Pangea. I personally think the Pangea pairs best with the silver accents and silver wheels (rather than black) but I think the Pangea will always look awesome. I live in Wyoming and it looks amazing against the environment here. It also looks very different in various lighting conditions, which I think is a plus. Though the white roof is iconic defender, the body colored roof looks really clean and nice.
