Did you Pick the Color of Your Car?
Or did you buy the one that came across at the time as the best deal etc?
Here's what one site says about the color you picked. Does it match you? (Using your C4 only). (you'll note the site below shows pcitures of a car- check out the first pic of a Red car!) Red A red car indicates that you are a passionate person. You are a “take charge” kind of individual and you are at least a little wild. If you are thinking of buying a red car keep in mind that red cars are still among the most stolen and one of the most ticketed vehicles on the road. Bright red paint also subconsciously sends the message that the owner is in a higher income bracket. Yellow There aren’t too many yellow cars on the road either, but a few companies do put them out; think the Ford Focus and VW Bug for instance. If you drive a yellow car you are confident. You like to have fun and you embrace the child within. Green Green is the color of nature. The person who chooses a green car is conscientious. They tend to be the go-to person in tense situations because they know how to keep their emotions in balance. Blue If your car is dark blue you are likely a very loyal person. You value relationships over wealth and you are calm. Rather than stand out, you like to blend in. If your car is light blue you are serene and peaceful. You also have a strong maternal instinct Purple This is the color of royalty. If you have found a purple car you are a cherished individual who loves beauty, but walks with strength and purpose Black A slick black car is the epitome of power and authority. Think CIA or Secret Service. If you have a black car, you are sending the message that you are in control and are self-assured. White There are many white cars on the road. What they say about their owners has a lot to do with their upkeep. A clean white car shows that you pay attention to detail. You are careful and pure. A dirty white car makes you look sloppy and indifferent Silver Silver cars represent prestige, wealth and luxury. The newer and shinier the car, the more this will come across. Gold A gold car represents wealth and pride. If you have a gold car, you likely want to be noticed. You want people to think you do not lack financially and you are independent so you lie to make yourself feel better. What Does the Color of Your Car Say About You? | Socyberty |

Its all clear now.
Mr. T CFI was yellow but, he is all but confident so he sold it for a light blue Vette. This means he has maternal instinct. ...A man that feels like a mother. I did pick my DRM. It was going to be DRM or none! On my Silver, I guess I'm wealthy because that SOB cost me some money to rebuild. |

I didn't get to choose the color of any vehicle I have ever owned. Four of the last five vehicles I have owned, including the one I have now, have been red.

I've had red ones. blue ones, white ones, a tan one and a brown one and even a green one. But I liked my red, or red familied vehicles the best.
My FRC is Red but I was trying to stay away from red Corvettes so I wouldn't be mistaken for Prince. The Mag Red is my favorite though followed by Nassau Blue and then White. I am also warming up to Silver/Pewter. I love the Charcoal Grays the C3 had. Black shows swirls way to much and are a pain to maintain. what was the question? |

I wanted an LT4 CE so that meant a silver car, but I know there's a special red CE out there .

I own a black one and 2 red ones... as well as a silver truck.
I didn't go specifically shopping for a color on any of them. I am way more about function than form. |

I ordered a silver 02 explorer because I knew it hid the dirt and it's true. My wife ordered a black accord and it always looks dirty. I almost didn't buy my vette for that very reason but it was to good of a deal.
