The gold one is certainly shiny, but I am just not a fan of that color. I'm looking forward to other Zenkote colors that may come our way in the future, however.
I won't be getting another 'vari for a good while but even if I could I wouldn't like the gold. It's just way too flashy. 
I like them. I was going to get one but then they came out with the green...but I like the bronze and the Zombie too.
Decisions, decisions.

What indication do you have that the color was created for a specific ethnic group? I think the choice of color has nothing to do with ethnicity. In the same way, liking or not liking a color is not a racial statement either.
and the first post, when viewed in that context, is fairly racist (or at best, stereotypical) as well.
He also posted this,
though I can't find the quote on ECF now, only through google search. I twitted him about about his use of the word zen "toke" instead of ZenKote.

Shiny gold doesn't do it for me. Satin gold would be nice. Seems plenty do like it, though, as they have been sold out since the release...
Don't understand the logic here. I am female, but that doesn't mean I want a pink or even the old purple ProVari. We are given a bunch of choices, and we can all buy what we like.
Also, this is not the first time that ProVape has done gold. There is an older version, but it was also a limited release.

The point I was trying to make is that I don't think ProVape specifically had any racial or ethnic group in mind when they came out with the zenkote ProVari.
It's also not about who we let in to the ProVarinati. Last time I checked we all bleed red, so I don't think skin color has anything to do with "membership" into the ProVarinati.
But if we are going to promote silly stereotypes, I think uglymusa is going to have to wait in line behind Italian Americans. Where I grew up they were "into gold", long before I saw brothers take up the mantle....

Actually salt was a valued commodity long before gold was. But I don't think a salt coated Provari would sell well.
Who is this "us" you speak of? Do you have multiple personalities? Besides, it's the ProVari that makes us Provarinati, not the other way around.
If you are looking for acceptance in the Provarinati, you've got it. If you want some outward sign of it, here you go.
We don't bite...Much.

I think a salt coated mod would be great with a margarita.

Actually gold had very little value until the touch stone was discovered which allowed vendors to accurately tell the difference between pure gold and gold cut with cheaper metals. This is what drove us from a bartering system to a monetary system. Since now the authenticity of the metal could be proven, a standard could developed which allowed money or coin to now represent the work necessary to provide the good or service instead of the actual good or service its self.
Before that gold was simply decorative and held little intrinsic value.
Ironic isn't it that now every country has dropped the gold standard and coinage and money to day is as worthless as the paper it's printed on.
