What car colour is best?

[Ryzza5]

Looks like we need more discussions around this place, so what better way to kick that off than another ridiculous poll

erm, ok then :umm:

 

 

Good Day, ladies and gentlemen and distinguished guests. Our fair website could benefit from a modest increase in posting activities. To that end, I propose to share another insightful question that may encourage you to bestow us with your feedback, in the form of a ballot, and of course, a post using the submission form below.

[Eudemon]

Ok then. This should be interesting.

Why there isn't pink? :lol: Jokes. Voted for black, because it fits any car and looks evil.

Bonus rep for posts written in ye olde polite 1800's style :)

Why is this in The Bin? :hmmm:

[Ryzza5]

Dear Sir, is not every other random ballot also amongst the garbage?

 

I shall request the steward to have it moved to the Car forums with haste.

[Eudemon]

By the way in the quote when I say "spam" I mean spambots, not you muppets and your spam. :lol:

Not every car works in the same colour.

[iNotACactus]

I'd say that different blues work on almost every car, but when it works I'd rather have yellow or red.

6 voters hardly makes for some sample data :rolleyes:

It's real difficult to vote for a colour as sometimes some colours do work and don't work depending on the car. For example Ferrari's look great in red but not orange, Lambo's look amazing in crazy colours but not Ferrari red (imo), BMW's really suit white at the moment but on the older ones red, blue and black were the colours of choice.

 

There is no best colour, and 10 years ago not many people would have picked white, but as we know that has seen an explosion in the uptake on cars of recent years, and for some reason cars now look good in it. So I guess what I'm saying, is it depends on the car, but perhaps if I had to pick a colour that I think works on virtually everything no matter what it was, then I would have to be boring and say black.

I picked white, though like Diablo said above, it'd have to depend on the car as to whether i'd actually choose white for it.

[Ryzza5]

Did you see the red Lambo in Topgear USA last week? Looked epic.

 

But yeah totally get what you mean. The idea is for each person to think of their favourite car or what they might realistically aspire to owning and choose based on that.

[Eudemon]

Haven't seen a single episode of TG USA to be honest.

:drool:

[Eudemon]

The Super Trofeo is stunning sure, but it would look even better in another colour imo.

[superhyper]

Red :whistle:

 

Seriously though, it depends so much on the car. But red :whistle:

Thing is simple, think about a color that simply any car would look good, in your opinion. There must be one.

[Eudemon]

...think about a colour that simply any car would look good, in your opinion

That's the point, there isn't one when you consider EVERY car. :p

[Ryzza5]

Well lets go through the colours then. Starting with Black (top at the list) - go and find 6 images to post here - the 3 cars that look best in black and 3 that look the worst. Let's see if we discover anything in the process :)

As Diab said, there is no best color for any car but if I had to choose the most neutral color that does not look bad on any car, it would be silver.

Right you are old chap, im sure we can keep this charade up and going and what not?

 

Some colours suit some automobiles much better than they suit the next, alas some colors just don't work at all and only exist due to the wealthy owners unique sense of bad taste.

 

Also some colours go with the times, most British cars from the 1970's all suit brown, and 80's supercars white(Cocaine white is the correct name of said colour).

 

Upon saying this though, Yellow seems to go well with almost all cars giving that it is the right shade & hue of yellow.

 

Edit -
