Why?
>>29082911Women
>>29082911Cheaper to offer less colors.
le resell valuecars are not made to own anymore, you're supposed to sell them
>>29082911People don't like fun anymore. It's not just cars. It's life in general.
why hate purple?
>>29082920Yeah, it's like the whole world is suffering dopamine burnout.
>>29082920Too much seriousness from people who read 30 page safety reports and worry about buying a car with a 0.1% chance of killing them vs a 0.2% chance.Same at work. I liked my last job but that's mainly because they didn't give a fuck how many safety rules I broke.
>>29082911>Why?Ask The Oracle...
Meanwhile in Germany.
People in England choose silver because it nets them 300 quid more on resale.
>>2908291190% of people buying new don't spec their own car, they just go to the dealership and get whatever the salesman wants them to go home with. Or they're buying certified pre-owned leasemobiles which are boring by necessity.
Here in my country white cars are considered more valuable because, by law, taxis can only be white
>>29082911What's objectively the best car color?
>>29083133lime green
>>29083133Depends on the car and the specific paint. A red chevy malibu != a red mazda3a blue CR-V != a blue ferrari
>>29082911Decline of the white race.
>>29083133Unfortunate it is exactly this question that is why car colors are so fucking boring now.White on every single car on the planet will at the very least look okay. Same with black and grey. This increases salability and re-salability, meaning that is what people are willing to buy, objectively.Being an insanely good color on a certain amount of cars will in no way ever qualify that color to objectively be the best overall.
>>29083133High visibility. But if everybody has high visibility it would lose its effect.
>>29082911Unironically Dealerships and Women.-Women only pick blue, grey, black and white (if they're old grandmas) Women buy 60% of new cars and control 80% of new car purchasing decisions.-Dealerships only stock/buy colours that appeal to as many buyers as possible. Someone might WANT green, but is willing to settle for grey if it's all that is in stock. No dealership is going to order a dozen green fucking cars and hope for the best.People should buy new cars before they need them, that way they can buy with favourable conditions and custom order with 3 month wait. Unfortunately retards wait until their current car breaks and have to buy what the dealership has (grey) like a bunch of gaybos
>>29082911If you haven't owned a red car you're a faggot.
>>29082911We typically aren't given the choice anymore, plus virtually nobody "custom orders" their appliance-tier cars anymore, they just pick among the row of monochrome CUVs at the dealership (with one or two red/blue ones if you're REALLY lucky).
>>29083162>Poverty spec Mercedes Benz made for womenYeah no shit retard. Go look at BMW 5 3 series options.
>>29083162Works on my computer
>>29083164>SUV>fucking everywhereOh boy here we go 2026
>>29083133beige
>>29083163>look at a rental spec BMW made for brownsCome again? I see half a dozen NPC gray colors and a single red and blue, just like I said. Yeah, an M3 gets the fun colors but we're not talking about those - appliance tier cars is what I said.>>29083164I like the green colors they offer on their SUVs, I'm noticing green slowly making a comeback which is great since it's the superior color.95% of the ones I see are still monochrome, however. It's only the one or two "Woodland" package models I've seen that have better colors.I personally don't count it if the only actual "color" offered is a single red or blue. We used to have dozens of colorful shades to pick from, even with luxury cars.
>>29083161Anon, red is considered a womanly color for cars
>>29082916Seems completely untrue. Women can see more colors than men and I think they'd rather buy a car in a color that can be considered cute.
>>290829111, anything besides gray or black usually costs extra. 2, people minmaxing resale value.
>>29083175>Seems completely untrue. Its not. Women influence the vast majority of purchasing decisions.
i want to blend in with the normies so when i do crimes they can't identify me
>>29082911Black cars became associated with wealth, red cars became associated with fast (and wealth), and grey is a cheap paint color that is appropriate for soulless NPC golems.
>>29083217This actually I wish I could change the colour of my car when I'm just cruising around and then I could like turn it normie colour when I'm openly breaking the law like when I do my Saturday drinking and driving or I'm blasting at 100 mph down the highway
Henry Ford was right
>>29083288About cars only coming in one color from the factory or about the other thing?
>>29083137frbr
>>29083133white if you live somewhere hot
I love my Integra's performance red pearl
>>29082911Why are appliances always one of 3 colors? Why does your commuting appliance need to be some bright and flashy color? Trucks are the best selling vehicles and those should never be red, yellow or blue which doesn't leave you with much.
>>29083204https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_Dauphine#Marrot_at_RenaultOld-as-fuck car, but there was a point when women valued colorful cars, so it's a cultural shift rather than something that can be chalked solely to gender.
>>29083466Good colour for a Honda. I'm eagerly anticipating a new Mx-5 in green.
>>29082911White is a must in hotter climates. Not sure why everyone else wants black and gray.
>>29083606White roofs work well too. You used to be able to option that.
>>29083598Would like to see it with silver wheels, or color matched to the bone(?) roof.
>>29083611Grey roof. I'll be painting or replacing the wheels.
>>29083598I think it would look sick with a glossy metallic green. Though Mazda's red is beautiful
>>29082911Colorful items are appealing to an optimistic population. When the future isn't so bright anymore the colors darken.>>29083610I've been seeing white tops on some CUV's here recently so perhaps somebody was paying attention.
Here's a Paint Take™ for yaFlat colored auto paint belongs on guitars and nothing else.
>>29083718Disgusting vehicles and geetars
>>29083681>I've been seeing white tops on some CUV's here recently so perhaps somebody was paying attention.The Neo-Retro thing has shifted from 50s/60s cars to 70s/80s ones>>29083723Strats are objectively cool, sorry
>>29083730Better, non slop pic
>>29083730Damn boomer
>>29083740>t.
>>29082911people are npcs now
>>29083718>Here's a Paint Take™ for yaYou don't know what you're talking about. Flat paint is non-glossy paint, satin and flat paints were not used an cars back then. If you think you're saying solid or non- metallic paint, please note the Olds in Burgandy Mist Poly. A metallic color. Also Lake Placid blue is an exclusive Eldorado only color as it doesn't show up in the regular 1958 paint chart, which means it's metallic too, although I have no proof.
>>29083853*Lake Placid Blue
>>29082911ppl stopped doing lsd and mushrooms
>>29083590women value fitting in and blending in society much more than men, because it's their primal method of surviving
>maximize resell valueWhy do americans buy cars hoping to flip them, when their value cuts right in half as soon as they've had even a single owner at all? Are they stupid?
>>29083853I did mean non-metallic. I do realize there are metallic paints in that picture, it's just one of the only ones I could find that made it clear that Fender used automotive paints for their guitars.>>29083853>Also Lake Placid blue is an exclusive Eldorado only color as it doesn't show up in the regular 1958 paint chart, which means it's metallic too, although I have no proof.It is
>>29083871They expect to trade them in for another new car after 3-5 years
>>29083879Your guitars look good in those colors, I prefer the metallics, probably the Lake Placid Blue the most.
>>29083887That's not mine lol, but Lake Placid Blue is a fan favorite. It ages into a nice teal/green color.
>>29083892That's the old clearcoat yellowing. If you refinished one with modern paint, it wouldn't age like that. The age adds to the look of a well loved tool.
>>29083899afaik some of the paints were nitrocellulose based like the clearcoats, so they would age alongside itnot sure about lake placid blue specifically thoughI'm sure they used thicker coats on cars, but it seems crazy to me that anyone thought this stuff would hold up to the elements
>>29083920Fender did a “modernized” Aquamarine Metallic in the early 2000s that doesn’t fade
>>29083489Red trucks are an og color. White trucks became the standard because it’s cheaper for fleets. Basically all the old adverts for trucks back in the day show a red truck.
>>29083133Unironically white. White is right.
>>29083947Yeah but that's gay as hell.Play wear and aging is cool.This was pristine when I bought it.
>>29083980That’s ugly as fuck though lol
>>29083990I truly could not give less of a fuck what you of all people think.
>>29083991Yeah because you’re a tastelet that doesn’t even have a car kek
>>29083996At least dust your shit off for the picture, christ
I like yellow :( How is yellow least popular?? No way people would prefer brown than yellow
>>29084007Rare to find a car you would want to buy, that's available in yellow these days. It's one of those polarizing colors that manufacturers dropped from their lineups, like green.
>>29082911“Popular” with manufacturers not buyers
>>29083466The blue is so, so much better my guy
>>29083996>blues dentist core
>>29084037NahhhhhhsonGot nothing set up for Blues right now; the Sunburst with the pickups that are in the Aquamarine one currently, make a really Good pair for that tone though
>>29084013green is slowly coming back because it is popular with millennials buyers. most yellow is dead since it was boomer color. red and blue are the standard "color option" colors
>>29083996Oh wow you have worse taste in knives, and even worse taste in cars
>>29084059Delusions of a tastelet nocar
best color incoming. fuck the gul yellow volvo, the e36 dakar yellow, and fuck you too cashmere yellow subaru. its a bad color.
>>29083879Lake Placid Blue absolutely fucks, I have a P-Bass in that colour
>>29084119Ah but enough about yourself
>>29084332That doesn’t even make sense kek fuckin tastelet nocar
The advice about black and white retaining resale value is out of date.>iSeeCars compared pricing data for over 1.2 million 3-year-old used cars to determine the impact, if any, on resale value. The results were that yellow vehicles hold the strongest value—the average vehicle loses 31 percent ($14,360) of its value after 3 years, but yellow cars only lose 24.0 percent ($13,667). In second place is orange, with the hue losing 24.4 percent of its value ($9,951), followed by green at 26.3 percent ($13,152). “Yellow and orange have been among the best colors for retained value since iSeeCars began tracking depreciation by color,” said iSeeCars Executive Analyst Karl Brauer. “These are not widely popular colors, but they have more demand than supply, and that translates to higher value on the used market.” Other above-average colors for value retention include beige, red, silver, brown, gray, and blue, says the company.>At the bottom of the list are black, white, and gold cars. Black cars lose about 31.9 percent ($15,381), white cars lose about 31.1 percent ($15,557), while gold cars lose 34.4 percent ($16,679). Those colors aren’t ugly, as many people opt for white and black vehicles because they are easy to keep clean (white) and showcase styling (black). There’s another reason, says iSeeCars. “White and black are the two most common car colors, which suggests plenty of people want them,” said Brauer. “But it also means those colors provide zero distinction in the used market, reducing their value and making it easy for buyers to shop around for the lowest-priced model in these shades.”
>>29084019It's a nice shade of blue, I'll give you that. But the red makes the car go faster
>>29084309bass'd
>>29082911>redIt fades like an absolute cunt after not much time in the sun.
>>29082911Colors look cheaper and uglier.
>>29082920The definition of "fun" has shifted.People dont find cars fun anymore.People dont find camping fun anymore.Mountain bike and surfboard sales have plummeted.Xbox is the new fun.People dont want to go outsideCars are not an extension of your personality anymore.Theyre just a tool to get to your McWagie job so you can have more money to spend on steam.
>>29084628>I CANT HAVE COLORFUL CAR BECAUSE MUH PARKING OUTSIDEJust say you're poor and fuck off
>>29084383Blue is lucky, and I've not had a single fault, ticket, or poor opinion sent my way.Hell I saw a little kid being pulled in a wagon point and say "Wow!"

>>29082911We already peaked at perfection and now it is all downhill from here
>>29085947TIL there were different versions and they were make by swapping panels. Guess that's obvious if you're familiar with them, but they're a foreign thing and I've never seen one IRL.
>>29085955Not only that, Hella made special indicator and taillight units that were tinted but could still project red and amber lights. Totally legal and I have seen people even mismatch colour sets so they have odd colored taillights or indicators.
>>29083133Silver. Stays the coolest in the summer heat.
