New Sony NEX Colors

It looks like Sony maybe coming out with new colors for the Sony NEX-3 and NEX-5 cameras. The new NEX-5 colors might be white, champagne gold, titanium, and pink gold. The NEX-3 may come in white, orange, pink, brown, and navy. Which one would you prefer?

We are hoping for an olive body as an homage to Leica's Safaris.
