Typically there is a standard palette of "normal" colors - traditional red, white, blue, black, etc. The quantity of offerings is agreed to by the marketing and the assembly plant.

Added to that you have a selection of more exotic colors: spring specials, tri-coats or premium colors, metalflakes, trendy colors, etc.

Those are the ones you typically see come and go, based on popularity as defined by "take rate" or sales. More popular colors might stay several years, like a Verdoro Green, whereas less popular color would get phased out after a short period of time.

CEO: AMC Theatres Hoping for Mid-June Re-Opening

Quote:
AMC Theatres, the world’s largest exhibitor with 1,000 theatres and 11,000 screens, hopes to re-open domestic screens by mid-June, CEO Adam Aron told CNBC.

Speaking March 31, Aron said the industry remained on “uncharted times in our lifetimes,” while admitting to wishful thinking as the chain has seen revenue plummet to zero as local and state governments banned group gatherings of 10 or more people.

No - the power steering hoses are not supposed to hang down like that. It's missing the special clip that holds them to the frame. You see this on Many Shelby GTs too.

Engineers and technicians set-up and test the machines that will be used to manufacture Level 1 face masks Monday, March 30, 2020 at the General Motors Warren, Michigan manufacturing facility.

Aaron Leitz sets up and tests a machine that will be used to manufacture Level 1 face masks on Sunday at the General Motors Warren manufacturing facility. Production will begin next week and within two weeks ramp up to 50,000 masks per day, with the potential to increase to 100,000 per day.
