Color or Black/White?

I maintain it is design specific. I suppose a classic with chrome and nickel bumpers, handles and window frames will be just right with white or even a pale pastel. Especially when the interior is tan leather, chrome details and clear or semi green  window glass. Think 911 and also the  Sprint Specialle with the black stitched leather dashboard.

Light silver metallic should enhance curves on a voluptuous specimen. This is down to the amount of reflective mica particles and the way light dances three dimensionally as you move around it. I think this is also why silver is hard to capture on stills. I guess it  looks boring on a simple bland saloon where it complements rather than allowed to compete for effect.

As much as I like silver and prefer it,  I have never seen a car that looks bad in black. Is this like the simple black dress? 

Some cars cry out for certain colors. Plumb Crazy Purple, Imola Red, British Racing Green, Grabber Orange. Macadamia Brown. Tell me you don’t know what cars those colors belong on.

Which color is best is not a universal or general question in my opinion. It’s completely car-specific. That being said, I obviously tend to be more drawn to certain colors than others. I generally don’t like white cars for example, but that Sprint Speciale from the previous article is astonishing in white. Also, I generally don’t like green cars, but Sublime/Lime Light works on certain Mopars and obviously British racing green is cool on some cars.

If I could only choose three different colors for the rest of my life though, I’d probably go for Red… Black and Blue.
