Paint colors

All I've seen at the dealership so far is a dark gray Cube. I'm guessing the white is a pearlescent paint. What about the blue, green and red? Are they non-metallic like they appear in photos? I don't like metallics. They are used on pretty much everything anymore except plain white. Someone in the know fill me in okay?.......................thanks ???

The Moss Green has metallic flecks in the paint, it doesn't really stand out and is really only noticeable when you're pretty close to the Cube.
Blue did not appear to have much metallic at the dealership, but the red and green are definitely metallics.
I'm still waiting to see a Carribean Blue in my area... I've seen all of the other colors at the dealerships.
All I've seen so far is Gray and Hershey Bar ???
i went to a dealer today and saw all the colors. sooo exciting to see them all lined up together.

anyways, the sun was shining and bright and they were all outside so i don't know if that affected the colors but,

th chocolate has purple undertones, red has fushia/pink undertones, moss- creamy avocado and the blue- very muted. i like the moss and blue better than i thought i would so know i'm torn between the blue/green/charcoal.

the white is also nice- cooler in the summer but the whiteness made it seem bigger/wider than the others.

they all seemed to have metallic undertones though.

That would have been a nice site to see, all of the colors at once! The only color I haven't seen in person is the caribbean blue, the dealers near me have had a combination of random colors, but none of them have had more than 3 at a time, with no caribbean blue!
I stopped by the local dealership today when I spied a white Cube which they must've gotten in very recently. Still waiting to see a 6 speed. Turns out it was Auto...................again. Anyhow, I took a very close look at the paint (even though it was a little dirty) and damn if it looked pearlescent or metal flake to me. Looked more Westinghouse than anything else. Maybe it just needs a good cleanup, but I looked at different areas and different angles and couldn't see any glistening paint. So........................now I've seen three colors. I may have to visit different dealerships to see them all, so when and if I pruchase a Cube I'll get the color I want most. Want very badly to see a Green and a Blue. :-\
the blue is definitely not a pearl. metallic, yes, but flakes are very very small. here's a pic, no post-processing except crop and blurred license plate:
