If I actually saw sand that color on a beach, I don't think I would swim there. However, I think this color is terrific on the 5. We saw the Mazda5 in black first, and didn't like it. For some reason, the pale green makes it look like an entirely different car, and we couldn't get it out of our minds. Just had to buy it.
  Don't get me wrong, I didn't buy the car for the color (or cup holders for that matter); The Mazda5 had what I needed in a vehicle. 1. Cargo area that would easily handle items 6 feet long. 2. Good gas mileage. 3. Comfort for long trips. 4. Reasonable (relatively speaking) price. 5. A few "creature comforts" (power windows, fog lamps, sliding side doors, easy open hatch, etc.).
  I also did my research and test drove odyssey, sienna, and a few others. Town & Country had the lowest price, but the consumer reviews told the agony of ownership. Too much of a gamble. The others were nice, but this "Golden Sand" Mazda5 spoke to us like no other vehicle. It looks more like a "New Leaf Green" to me. And we've had a LOT of compliments on the color.
I never knew a van could be such a fun car to drive!

Couldn't agree with you more! I also have a 2008 in Golden Sand and have also received many compliments on the color. It's a fun car to drive and comes with anything you'll need.
