Imo, the more the better, photos, videos, engineering you name it.
The problem is lack of driving reviews and performance numbers as track times, skid pad, quarter mile, stopping distance etc. months after the car has been open for orders. The only thing we have is crummy influencer reviews and the near useless 0-60 time.

Nobody is forcing you to do anything. Seeing this car photographed properly, and in a variety of colors, helps those who are considering this car determine if it's the right choice for them.

But at least the wheels, interior and colour selection are good.

I love the colour. In my personal opinion it would look great on bigger cars in the x series.

Looks like a more brown DG which is not flattering IMO. Camry color in deed.

Beautiful color, but I could never individual any shade of Gray unless frozen.

This color reminds me of the beige Camry I rented in Atlanta 15 years ago.

You should never judge color temperature from photos. There are several steps where it could be interpreted incorrectly from the color of the lights in the showroom, time of day, the camera software, and your computer/phone display. Generally in sunlight things always look significantly cooler.

Looks like a slightly darker shade of Porsche GT Silver (best silver ever).

Need to see it in person and with better wheels and I think I'll love it. Black wheels KILL silver cars for my eye

Beautiful color. Black wheels divert the attention from deep grey hues. Silver wheels will be much more complementary.

This sure feels like the strategy. The flurry of G8x in EVERY SINGLE special color to distract from the horrid design wasn't needed for the gens before.

The inbetweeners may be swayed. Not the rest, including me.

So again, only good thing about this car. Wheel design and nice colors.
And no, the manual is not enough to justify driving this where people can see.

Despite this gorgeous color
I prefer this car only in black, allows this grill not to be in your face kind of.
