Look at the 3:15 mark in the background, next to the 22.5 dark blue SS.. Is this a new color for the WSM's???

Obviously that video was shot in Europe - did I notice a German accent?

Crap...now I want a blue WSM

That blue 18.5" WSM  belongs to Mike Lang from anotherpintplease.com  He's also a member here! It's sprayed blue directly from the Weber factory but I forget the exact story behind it. I hope he chimes in.

Um well that makes sense as he is the guy in the vid ..

Ha, sorry I missed his intro. I wasn't trying to be a smartass.

Thought never crossed my mind G. . Besides I didn't catch his name till like the third time of watching it.. I was looking at the size cause you said it was a 18.5..

Nice isn't it? Reminds me of this only much more rare.

[mirkwood]

Yeah it is a thing of beauty and would look so nice next to my performer with a nice thin blue smoke coming out of it..

As much of a novelty as it is seeing a blue WSM, I just think a smoker ought to be black? To me, it just looks strange to see a smoker be anything other than black or SS? I almost feel like some natural law in the universe is being violated by having a colored smoker? To me, school buses ought to be yellow, fire trucks ought to be red, and smokers should be black!

sounds like your 'ought to be' logic is defined by 'what you've gotten used to seeing'

Naked stainless would be acceptable.

I would like to see a variety of colors. I still think they should take custom orders on their site and allow logos as well.  I wrote Weber a letter asking why the USA doesn't have the color selection that Europe does for the kettles, and requesting it. They said they would pass it along to the suggestions department (hopefully not the round file!)

I've said it in other threads, but I would GLADLY pay a premium to be able to order a kettle, smoker, or smokey joe directly from Weber with a custom color or logo.  I'm sure there are a ton of folks on the competition circuit who would love to have WSM's with their team's logo across it.
