Why is Whiteout FRS So Popular?
Why? is White a sports car color? I would expect Firestorm or Raven to be the most popular color for this car but I seen 4 FRS on the streets where I live and 2 are white! hell even the copilation thread here has Whiteout up by like 20 pages on the next closest.

I just like the white metallic pearl color, it does compliment the car IMHO better. Though it's always a matter of opinion.
Also -- white cars hold their value better, from what i've researched in the past. |

I actually could not decide, I had each color written on paper and in a hat. I did a best out of 5, white won. I would have done ANY color to be 100% truthfull.

I have raven. When looking at any sort of mod, whether aero or mechanical the vendors always have whiteout. Doesn't take much to transform an already beautiful car to a show car or aggressive looking track car. Made me develop a slight case of whiteout envy.

White also makes a small car look bigger.
