+1
Oil color does not indicate anything.
Yes it does.
It distinguishes it from other fluids so it can be identified as oil when there is a leak.
Or it can have a uique colour to help identify the oil brand by the manufacturer.

I thought most if not all of them do. I thought after refining the basestocks are clear like water so the blender will add colouring to make it consistent to what the consumer is used to seeing because it was that oil was brown after refining because the refinement process wasn't as thorough as it is now.
I'm not positive though so no quotes

Most, if not all, straight or branched chain hydrocarbons will be clear and colorless when liquid. Usually you don't get coloring until you have more complex conjugated ring systems and/or metals in the mix. (Sulfur and nitrogen can give some brown or yellow but usually it's ring structures and transition metals).
The one on the left clearly displays an air of superiority, smugness if you will.
The unicorn tears and other miacle additives (which Mobil picks up in sraled briefcases from Area 51) only become visible when viewed under the shared light of a binary star system

Well done folks!! I suppose a photo like this of two oils is really basically a..... BITOG inkblot test. All new members should perhaps be required to interpret the blot.

I want to hear more about this lakefront property for sale...
Yeah, I have a small lake front lot that just came up for sale in Kiev. Motivated seller. Never changed his ATF, found out "lifetime" meant 100k and then a transmission change.

Well that could be depending the usage and transmission, but not always necessarily true with an engine...
