It's true... White is a sexy color but I also noticed that anytime I see a white (clean) car, anything from a honda accord, elantra, to a 5 series, etc... it's usually a female driving one... and an attractive one too. SO everytime I see a white car on the road, I just get a little.. side tracked.

No offense to any whiteout owners though if I pull up to you thinking you're a cute chick. Still a nice a color haha

This is my only reason for second guessing white, the popularity. I have seen a few of these cars in person and white always seems to be the color I see.

I almost regret going with Whiteout, only because of the popularity. It's my favorite color for this car, but I want something more unique. Oh well.

It's a Toyota, if it came in beige that would be the most popular color.

You don't buy a Toyota/non-STI-Subaru to stand out; hence the unpopularity of Hot Lava.
Boring color for a boring auto manufacturer.

The white one had MT.

The orange and gray ones had AT.

That day on the lot.

Because the panda AE86 is beautiful. :D

Color by itself isn't going to define the car. It's what you put into it. No worries, just mod it to how you like it and it'll be individualized.

White is always right

This model has a lower line.

A lot of those white vehicles are for fleets, which can skew the numbers. A company ordering fifteen white vans or focuses can skew the stats a bit.

I would have been more interested in the white if it weren't pearl. I'm not sure if they're having an issue with the FR-S, but I have seen several pearl white cars from other manufacturers where the bumpers don't quite match the sheetmetal. I have no idea if the issues were caused by the flex agents in the paint or the materials themselves not playing well with pearl white, but it's a nasty look when it happens and I wanted to stay away.

White pairs well with almost any other highlight color you want to add. If decals and plastidipped wheels are you thing white is going to be a good start. Black is good like this too but any actual color (hot lava, firestorm, ultramarine) limits your options. Plus I think people like white and silver because it's harder to see rock chips and scratches.

The Pearl white just feels like a premium. It's offered at a Premium price, it was the most demand, had the longest waiting list since it was most desired. Feels like when you can go pearl white, its a nice upscale when a lot of cars in the price segment or below only come in "gloss." There's a connotation that only luxury or special cars get the pearl white treatment.

It's not the case today though. Many ecoboxes are now offered in pearl white, but the connotations are still there.

This is true. Even taking that into account though, I still see far more white vehicles on the road and in parking lots than any other color.

For those that are interested in the breakdown:

They have silver and gray split. If they're going on vehicle registrations for their stats, some states may offer gray as an option when you register a car, but not silver - or the other way around. I would bet that a lot of times the exact same car/color is registered as gray in one state and silver in another. If you combine silver and gray, you come up with 31%, which would beat out white and which also goes along more with what I see on the roads.
