Anthracite metallic is a safe bet for any kind of car. Red and black are popular but work well on fewer cars than most people expect. A red econobox has always looked and will always look horrid.

Worst: Yellow
Best: medium blue or dark metallic purple.

also, silver cars can accumulate lots of dirt while being barely noticeable.

personal worst:
white: it's like driving a kitchen appliance. bird poop magnet. always dirty.
black: too hot on sunny summer days. knight rider jokes. always dirty.

Different colors suit different cars.

One of the worst colors I've seen was from VW, for the New Beetle. I think it was called Isotope Green. Awful metallic puke color from the factory that faded into a sort of bright snot green from sun exposure. There's one I see in my neighborhood frequently, and it looks like ass (even by new beetle standards).

Funny you should mention green.

My 240z was originally lime green, got painted white in the 80's and I'm thinking of heading back in the green direction, but probably not so much lime

Pink cars are the least likely to be stolen[1]. It's the most rational choice.

Any choice should be made based on pure reason only.

You might wanna check with a professional for color blindness, it can inhibit your driving.

>>14086891
Also this study is complete horse shit. The reason black and blue cars get stolen more than pink cars is simply because there are a lot more of them. If all cars were pink, pink would be the most stolen car color.

Pretty much anything honestly. Slight preference for white with accents.

Worst colors; White, any shade of baby shit green
Best Color: Teal, green

Fight me. white is the worst fucking color on a car. And I had a white car. Fucking hated it.
>>
Midnight blue, forest green and white are objectively best.

Worst is yellow, and certain forms of purple and green that are commonly used by ricers. Also black is the most overrated, but it doesnt normally look bad so it gets a pass. Red too but to a lesser degree.

>>14086965
You can't read graphs can you? That last graph shows that as popularity of a certain colour declined, so did the theft of that colour. The researches made links between this and the effected re-sale of the car, making it harder for thieves to sell quickly. So the more popular the colour, the easier to sell, the more likely that car will be stolen over the same car with a less popular colour. What would be harder to sell a metallic black 320i or a hot pink 320i?
>>
>>14088627
why do you "fucking hate" a marvel of engineering?
>>
>>14087101
Well, now I'm conflicted. Turns out the color I was thinking of is actually "Cyber Green", which doesn't look as awful as Isotope when the car is new, but still fades unevenly and makes the car look horrid.

But that isotope color is still fugly, what the hell were they thinking? I can't decide which I hate more.
