pretty strange results from the car color survey at

http://www.bankrate.com/cweb/news/auto/car...uide/colors.asp

i guess i am not too surprised to see silver first and black second...
but white third??? maybe because its a practical color!
and bronze 10th!! a bronze car- really???

by the way, it looks like honda picked the colors for the s2000 right off of this chart! (our car only comes in the top colors)

Contrary to what most people believe, I think white looks great on sports cars. It's one of those colors (like silver and black) that look good on most, if not all, cars.

Just noticed you're from Marina Del Rey. I'm there all the time, eating at CPK or Jerry's Famous Deli. The cafeteria food at LMU gets old after eating it day after day.

Hey - my color was not even listed! What's up with that?
Okay, so it is good to be in the minority, but around here, Spa seems to be the most popular color.

Contrary to what some believe, I think white ought to be reserved for

Sebring Silver.

There is no other choice for me. Looks beautiful and shows off the lines of the car very well. Red and yellow seem to overpower the lines of the car. Black and white seem to hide the lines of the car. (IMO)

Plus, Sebring Silver blends in with traffic much better. Less obvious to the Popo. Less chance of a speeding ticket. I almost lost my license once. I will never own a red car again. Uh, unless it is a Porsche.
