Yellow color

The image I Googled for yellow fit is quite inconsistent
Anyone know if the yellow is pale one,
or shape one like lemon?

Here's a Honda commercial that shows off the yellow. To me, the video makes it look in between the two colors you posted.

I agree with the above. From what I've heard and videos I've seen, I'd describe it as a "banana yellow". Not too neon, and not too taxi-cab yellow either.

The different shades of yellow probably has to do with different lighting too.

Then too, it's a "pearl" paint, so it will look different in different lighting.


I'm interested, but I'm reserving judgment until I see it in person.

Yikes! How can you mess up yellow like that. Reminds me of the old pipi yellow some toyota wagons had in the 80s. It's a real shame...

I took some pictures of the Honda Fit (Jazz in Philippines). They had a red and yellow model.

The yellow didn't have a bright yellow punch to it that I expected. It was a bit muted or a pale yellow. Or it could be the combined fluorescent lighting with the background daylight that confused the camera. I do remember it looking like a yellow that was a bit whiter than usual though.

I think the saleslady said these were made in Thailand or Malaysia, I can't remember.
