What is your Color of Choice?

White is the nicest looking of them all.
2nd is probably black if you can keep it clean.
 
Various types of reds, black, darkish metallic silver or darker blues. Depends on the type of vehicle of course, that dark silver metallic looks great on something like a decked out Mustang. Black looks good on anything. Case by case but basically I like these deep, stand-out colours. White, light greys etc that you see on the "transportation appliance" type vehicles I find so boring.
 
Some silvers and greys look the same to me....lol. When does silver become grey, or grey become silver? :)

Personally, I like black.....hehe. but wouldn't mind silver or blue either.

Current car is baby blue lol.....


And here I thought I was expecting a "Poll" of sorts in the Antifreeze forums, asking what everyone's favorite antifreeze/coolant color is :)

it depends on the vehicle.
i have owned blues,greys,red,sea green,tan,whites,light yellow,burgundy.
burgundy is my least favorite,actually i actively dislike it.white is next,but having said that 2 of my current trucks are burgundy and 1 suv is white and friday i go to look at a white 86 ltd.lol.my wifes is suv is the champagne/tan-light bronze that is popular.don't like that one either.
but those were the colors on the used vehicles i found that met my other requirements.
 
Life is too short for drab colors.

The G8 is Ignition Orange Metallic, the Solstice is Inferno Orange Metallic (aka Brazen), and the Torrent is Carbon Black Metallic.

The '04 Jag is classic British Racing Green (that's actually a specific color and distinct from the more modern Jaguar Racing Green which is an iridescent metallic). The truck and Xj12 are white, although Jaguar has a fancier name for whites which escapes me at the moment.

Holden had a paint called Stealth Blue which was a really nice color shifter, but only a few hundred of those made it here.
 
I really like the color of my Dakota. Dodge has some foo-foo name for it, Light Almond Pearl Metallic, or something like that. I just call it gold!

My only real dislikes: Dark green- just don't care for it. Black- too doggone hot, shows every little speck- but when it's clean & waxed looks great for a few minutes!
 
It would be easier to list my dislikes.

Any gray or silver that is not white or black.

Any color that resembles gold or the color of sand.

Most shades of green.
 
Blue is good. Formal like black but is more lively. I have silver/tan now after a few red. Red cars look good as they age. Silver is fastest.
 
My folks seem to buy silver. However, it is a very common choice on Buicks anyway. Their last two Buicks have been Silver.

Dad says all pickups should be red. Therefore, his Sierra is red.

I prefer dark red, dark blue, or dark silver (not bright silver).
 
Black all day. And I live in the deep south, no less. There's nothing like the look of a black car (so long as it's not filthy) on a bright sunny day. They don't camouflage dirt well, and they can get very hot in the summer, but the look is hard to beat.

An added bonus: with the black paint on the hood, it's a lot easier on the eyes when the sun is beating on the hood. I've had a couple white cars in the past, and hated that glare. No problem with the black car.
