White: You like to present a fresh, young, modern face to the outside world. You have taste and elegance. White is also associated with honesty and purity. ( White can be hard to keep clean in some regions. It's a high-maintenance color.) Black: Black is the sophisticate's color. Black is a power color. Black declares itself as important, classic and in control. Silver: A silver car color indicates that you're a high-class lady or gentleman with an eye on the upscale. Your status is higher in the world, and you're not afraid to show it. (Silver doesn't get as dirty as a white car or as hot as a black car.) Gray: The gray car driver doesn't want to stand out. You have more dignity, tradition and maturity. The driver of a gray car cares less about status and more about the status quo. Red: Go-getter types may pick a red car. Red projects action, power and masculinity. A red car for a man may declare great status in his world, whether that's finance or law. However, for women, red often just represents confidence and fun. The red sports car screams, "Look at me!" in every way. That driver might think he has something impressive to show you -- the freeway equivalent of an exhibitionist. Blue: Blue is a practical, happy color for many. Blue projects stability, truthfulness and serenity. The minivan mom may choose blue, which projects a nice, stable family appearance. Green: Green has been closely tied to nature. Maybe you brake for arboretums and fuel up your sedan with biofuel. Green's popularity peaked in the 1990's, and now we're in the midst of a backlash against green, with fewer green cars in showrooms and on the road. Because of the anti-green sentiment, if you still drive a green car, you may be OK with being a fashion laggard and in no rush to catch up to current trends. Orange: Bright orange declares that you're quite comfortable with value and saving money. You do a good job of minding your money. You might skip doing things for yourself (no spa treatments or expensive hair appointments) just so you can focus on value-rich investments. An orange BMW? You pinched pennies to buy that head turner. You're sort of tipping the world on edge. ( Orange is one of the least favorite colors of new car buyers in the U.S.) Yellow/Gold: Yellow exudes joy and a positive attitude. Younger people are drawn to the brighter colors. Bright colors doesn't feel like a risk to them. ( Yellow or gold cars make up only 1% to 2% of car colors.) Brown/Beige: Brown exudes a quiet peace. A preference for brown or beige also may speak volumes about your penny-pinching ways. Someone who prefers brown doesn't really want to buy anything new. He just wants to live his life. He doesn't care about style, and might keep a car until it drops. A brown-car buyer wants value, and a long life in his or her purchases, and doesn't care about trends or fads.

When I bought my current car, I was looking for Blue, as it's my favorite color. The salesman and I looked at all of them, but couldn't find Blue. I ended up getting "Black Forrest Green" color. That color looks really nice, and ended up getting that one. It's dark Green close up, but looks dark Blue from a distance. Green is my second favorite color, and I'm quite happy with the one I picked. The Rav 4 is a pretty nice SUV to drive.

I have one white car and one black. I guess I am elegantly powerful. LOL. Actually both are hard to keep clean, especially in the winter. I have had more white cars than black. We did have a green Accord. It also had a lime green interior. I liked it but a car salesman said that combo was ugly one day. He walked us to our car and saw we actually had it and was dumbfounded. I laughed at the look on his face as he was well aware that sale was never gonna happen.

I bought my F-150 (4x2, 6cyl., 5 speed/manual) new in 2007. I went with Forest Green as it matched the color of my backpack. I went with blue, my favorite color, on my last Toyota Hi-Lux (now Tacoma) 4x4 and wanted to try something different. I'm for sure a fashion laggard, T-shirts, blue jeans, tennis shoes, and a ball-cap is my style.

I like the "high class" part of Silver. Glad I chose the right color! I swear it had nothing to do with the silver one being in better shape than the blue one that was a year newer :)

I chose the color of my car(steel grey) b/c it was the cheapest of the 3 offered to me. In reality, the color had nothing to do with my purchase. It was the price of being $2,500 less than the white and black versions of the 2007 Hyundai Sonata V6 that I got. The price of the steel grey was lowered because it was the lower vehicle with 6,000 miles on it. With the other saving Hyundai was running at the time, I walked out the door with a $24,500 car for $17,500. I traded in my 12 year old Nissan Altima for $500, so i financed the $17,000 for the car.

No, all i meant to say is that a computer case isn't much to describe as most of them, like 90% of them, come in black. Unless you went out of your way to beat the grain, I don't think using a case is a valid method of comparison to choice of color on a car. I guess its like the Model T, you can have it in any color, so long as its black...98% of PC cases are black lol.

The cars I've owned were orange, metallic grey and bright red in that order. I definitely am a cheapskate most of the time, I definitely did not want to stand out with the 2nd car...but I'm not so sure about red. I chose Flame Red on my Wrangler because its simply a classic and accents the best with the black fenders, bumpers and top.
