Black cars and white cars seem to be invisible. I've had a few close calls with my red BRZ, but I've had more close calls and actual accidents with my black Jeep Cherokee that is twice the BRZ's size. One idiot rear ended my Jeep and actually said, "I didn't see you." And I thought, of course not, with your head shoved up your ass like that.

Keep the car. Drive and park defensively. I always assume everyone around me is about to do something stupid. I always look for parking spaces where the car is protected or where someone would have to make a deliberate effort to hit it.

While this car isn't an accident magnet, some cars are. Everybody I ever knew who bought a Fiero ended up getting hit. Something about that car's shape made it invisible, even in red.
