And that is fine. Colour choice is subjective. Because you don't like it does not mean it was not a popular colour since the very start of sports cars and will still remain popular with many now and in the future.


I personally can not understand why anybody in their right mind would buy a white sports car unless they are getting it really cheap from a rental fleet sell off but that doesn't mean it isn't somehow the most popular colour of all.

just let him and his brainworms do their thing in the corner. The color is all but dead in the past 20 years and should stay that way. According to ppg and dupont less than 2% of cars world wide are green so it makes sense why youd pick a ton of other colors

Ooohhh idk. White looks good on a lot of cars. I'd take a speedway white c5z in a heartbeat. Or the panda trueno, of course.

So what? People can't like green? There were 88 million cars made last year so that is still a shitload of green. Because you don't like it doesn't mean shit.

I, as in me do not like white cars. "Looks good" remains subjective. Just because I don't think it looks good does not mean I expect others to agree though.

I'm the same way with Silver. Silver screams "fleet car" to me.

White and silver also usually guarantee that the driver will not turn their lights on in pour rain or blowing snow.

There is a huge difference in whites too. Much like you said about green having pearl.... some premium whites have a pearl that really pops. GM has white diamond tricoat that is a really neat color. Mazda uses a white on a lot of cars that has a really cool flake in it as well.


Then you have base white rental fleet Nissan color on the opposite end of the spectrum

FECK, you two are killing me. I've had a few silver cars The best flake in a car was my Quicksilver Corvette. Bonus, white and silver almost always look clean even if they're dirty.


Also depends on the car though. My TBSS was silver and I always kind of thought it looked a little bland, but when I see a white one I go bananas.


Very car subjective though.

People are not allowed to like green. The people who own those 88 million cars don't matter.

You want "In Your Face" green? How about a chartreuse green metal flake, (flake, not metallic) 1965 Corvair Corsa 180 Turbo!



Go ahead, try to top that!

I got a white sport car with a hard top to fight off solar radiation on road trips in hot areas.
Works well at that.

This week it's not doing me a bit of good.
