What is your favorite color for a car?
 
Red. I love seeing a red car. It always gets my attention. I also love the metallic colors, in any color actually. I also love cars with fiery designs on them. But it's the red cars that stand out the most. I was lucky enough to own a red Jetta for two years. Plus I had a silver car at the same time that no one noticed me in, while I was driving. One time in Phoenix I saw a major hottie at a bus stop so I drove around the block and "pretended" to just be driving down the road. The horn didn't work on that car so I simply stopped and waited for him to notice. When he did I pointed at him and motioned for him to come over to the car. He put his hand on his chest and mouthed the word, "me?" I nodded, after all he was the only one at the bus stop! He came over to my red bull and hopped in and I gave him a ride and that was how Richard Gonzalez became my boyfriend for the summer of 2005.

For me, it depends on the car- honestly. For more sporty cars, red is a great color. We used to have a Red Porsche Boxter, and now have a red Mercedes CLK320 convertible.

That being said, my car is technically called "Champagne"- which is a light tan-ish, cream color, and for that car (a Saab 9-2x) it looks perfect. Looks better than that car in a red. :nod:

Black always looks sexy on any car though, too!

Steel gray. Yes. Beautiful.

I'm partial to gold/tan...and also white.
my first two vehicles were white. and the car I have now is gold-ish colored.
both are great because they don't really show dirt.

Black. I had a spiffy black Saturn until I was rear ended a few years ago and the car was totalled. I was fine and that's all that matters. I got a used silver Honda which has served me well but it's kinda boring. I see the same car on the road everywhere I go. I often have trouble finding my car in large parking lots 'cause there are so many silver Hondas all over the place!

:lol:

Black. It think it makes cars look classier.

I have always liked silver cars. Or black.

My current favorite seems to be charcoal grey. It's classy, luxurious, really brings out a car's lines, but isn't formal like black. The color looks good on everything from sports cars to luxury and even economy cars.

However, I pretty much think all convertibles should be red though. I actually prefer non-metallic plain old bright red :D.

My DeLoreans were both unpainted Stainless Steel, and I'd have them no other way! :thumbsup:

I actually like tan for both interior and exterior. I'm not a terribly exciting person and I really HATE to stand out. I much prefer to stay in the background and tan is a color that fits nicely with my lifestyle.
