Firestorm or Ultramarine?

Just from a human perspective, if you are watching 10 cars drive by at 85-90 mph and 9 of them are silver or white and 1 is red/yellow/lime-green, which do you think would garner more attention?

Doesn't mean you will be pulled over, but you will get noticed (good and possibly bad)

I meant percentage of, not actual numbers. And unless you have something to back up your claim as well, I'd say you are on equally bad footing to make such statements. Correlation is not equal to causation, and if you are worried about drawing attention, boy are you in the wrong car.


This is the closest thing I could find to anyone actually attempting to do a study:

Firestorm! And it looks like I'm the 86th voter on this so it's ok to listen to me

Firestorm. I just love sport car in red.

I love the look of this red BRZ with white rims

I personally find aggressively styled cars look better in warm colors (red, yellow, orange). It tends to enhance the sharp styling. While the more smoothly styled cars look better in cold/dark colors.

Those were my two choices. My GF wanted me to get the firestorm but I went with the Ultramarine. That was the color I've been wanting.

Which one out of the two is easier to maintain? In terms of which one gets dirtier faster, or which one shows imperfections more, etc...
