Is it possible for a silver colored car to look good compared to other colors?
the edgier and boxier it is, the better it will look in silver.
round cars look the worst in that tone/color

Silver is a top color
>>17497567
silver is for fencesitters who are too cowardly to choose a colour
>>17497463
>silver
I don't know anything about colors
>black
I feel like I've made an important purchase with this car
>white
IT LOOKS GREAT, I think...
>gray
I don't care about the color
Dark green and blue are the best colors out there. They also tend to have owners who have some idea on what a car is
>>17497591
What about a gray with a darker pearl
>>17497591
I have owned 5 blue cars and one black.
The colour doesn't tend to influence my purchase, but in video games I tend to paint the cars yellow. The colours that could have me turn down a car is any pink like hot or baby pink.
>>17497591
Dark silver is top tier
Black is for fags
White is tasteful if done right (cream white, bone white)
Dark Green is patrician, also with brown interior
Blue can be nice as well, best blues are BMWs
TFW car would look good in any color
>>17497673
green or violet hands down
>>17497673
the cars in the back dont change color because they dont have any.
>>17497463
If I had a car modified for midnight street racing, I would want to paint it gunmetal silver or any dark shade of grey to Make it harder for cops to find me if I ever need to lay low.
Paint with flake is top tier
>>17497714
Prove me wrong
>>17497714
I don't think something that comes standard on 90% of cars made today is top tier
>>17497463
Silver CAN look good if it's accented well with other colors. By itself it's kind of meh tier.
>>17497714
>>17497717
>>17497463
no, silver is objectively one of the most boring and shitty colors around. If you buy silver you have no taste and no personality

What is the point of a color if it's not even a color?
>>17497846
but that's obviously dark green
Not quite silver, but R32s look good in dark gray. I think this is the best color for most cars, even E140 Corollas look good in dark gray.
>>17497591
>tfw when my car is a two tone of dark green AND blue
>>17497463
Yeah. It's too safe of a color imo. It's better for hiding age like white.
Dark colors are shit for aging and resale. Bright color master race.
>>17497721
Agreed, to many modern cars with metallic paint.
>>17497748
Nice Ascona, don’t see many around.
>>17497762
>>17497806
Dark colors hide contours and details.
>>17498985
>that faded paint
Wouldnt mind if it was just a shitbox
>>17499009
Most modern Lambos come with bright as fuck candy paint, or gaudy wraps.
>>17499023
Bad lighting, but my camera is shit anyway and I can't be bothered to take a better picture.
>>17497463
No it's fucking boring. It looks like bare metal. It's not the 90's anymore.
>>17499042
Paint looks nice, but...
>chrome wheels
Eww, at least they are stock
>>17497463
Silver is the all round best color for a car. But dark green is dank as fug m8 XD.
>>17499050
Owners still wrap them
Silver is what a metal machine SHOULD look like. A color painted machine/ tool is a little tacky
Graphite a best.
One of my favorite cars
Outta my way boring fucking shits

Most dark blues are shit anyway. Tone is disgusting. Car makers never make it right. Theres always a shit ton of different colors and only few of them are nice or atleast acceptable. Nogaro blue is nice, but then again it costs shit load of money. Silver metallic or gray fits the best for modern cars, anyother color just looks off.
>>17499065
Why not just leave it unpainted then?... oh, right, rust

Agreed. It fits every car and even makes a modern shitbox look good.

dark green only looks good on offroaders IMO
>>17499845
It looks cool on old car, like Bullitt. Blobs like the Miata, or modern cars not so much.
>>17497463
Meh, it all depends of the car. For me persinally silver evos are the best looking
I was driving home this morning from a party and got stuck at a redlight with the windows down. I see this really ugly, fat girl turning down the street past me and she says "wow that's a really pretty car!" I don't know how I should feel about this. I'm kind of angry about it just being called "pretty" by women all the time, especially fat girls.
>>17497591
Ya pretty much accurate for white and silver since I've had both and feel same way.
Wrapping my Cayman next Saturday, will be a matte white.
>>17499845
>dark green only looks good on offroaders IMO
>>17499900
That's a weird-ass roof you got there on that house.
>>17499900
honestly, that's kinda faggy blue mate
It's more like turquoise then blue.
This new SacreBlue from Ford and Yas Marina Blue from BMW are god tier through
Silver is superior
>>17499876
Honestly I think evos are one of few cars that look best in white.
Silver works best on Mercs and maybe bigger Audis
>>17499939
It's an apartment building, it does look like someones first house in the Sims when they just go "eh fuck it, just finish the thing"
>>17499946
I like it, it stands out and is a special color on speeds that isn't seen much.Can't really tell in photos but it's real sparkly, so extra faggy but its a cute.
>>17497474
I feel the exact opposite, soap bars like 550 Spyder, 356 Speedster look great in silver, sharp edged cars like the 458 silver just obscures the lines
I also like light silver colors on cars with lots of black trim/accents. When it's just a giant swathe of unbroken body color light silver just looks like an appliance
>>17499972
>I like it
Most important thing here, nothing else much matters
>it's real sparkly, so extra faggy but its a cute
Well if you yourself think it's faggy cutie, don't be surprised grills think this too
>>17499979
911 in silver looks like sex, it always did
>>17499939
>>17499972
The style is actually called mansard, it was popular first in France in the 17th century, then again in the 19th century, and by the early 20th century it also spread to England and found some use in North America as well.
>>17499991
BMW have kept good lines on their cars, they don't look like hoovers (except i3)
>>17500012
Of course Americans can't leave anything untouched, so when they rediscovered the style around the 1970s they completely perverted it.
>>17499997
Women love it. I shouldn't complain really when they say it's pretty, it's got the best of both worlds. When my car friends are in it they're obsessed with the intake noise and know that it's a fast car. Women always compliment it because it appeals to them by being pretty. My ex basically begged me not to sell it for a 911.
>>17500017
In some cases this went as far as almost the entire house being a roof.
>>17500022
Alpine white really is bmw best color when match with the motorsport colors
>>17500020
that's like a grill house that wears a really long t shirt and booty shorts in the morning. fukken sxy house
>>17500035
100% agree
Plus the contrast with the black trim and wheel rubber is good too. This is something Black doesn't have going for it.
>>17500041
It's not particularly well proportioned, but it's very unique and charismatic and the better examples of '70s mansards will soon become architectural historic material like mid-century houses did.
>>17500057
>It's not particularly well proportioned
fuck off, sorry she doesn't have the biggest, most symmetrical windows but she's super nice and I'd live in her everyday and wash her gutter so hard.
>>17500073
Better than a McMansion anyway.
Anyone else have yellow?
Imo yellow is really easy to do wrong, but it's great when done right
Dream car is a gt4 in yellow
Also what people are referring to as dark silver is gunmetal grey
You wouldn't see a solid piece of silver or gold and see different shades across the board
>>17500150
Yellow is good when the tone is right.
And on the right car.
As a detailer I get sorta trigger when people shit on silver cars, it's objectively the best color for having near flawless looking paint. It fucking hides every scratch, it's insane. You can do a half-assed paint correction and it will look stupid shiny. Personally I prefer pearl whites, because it is less bland looking and hide scratches almost as well, but silver is still better because it hides dirt really well too, white won't.
>>17500258
"I like it because it makes me have to not work hard."
It looks like shit, who cares how easy it is to hide blemishes. Put a pro detailed ANY OTHER color car next to the same in silver, and no one gonna look at the bland ass fucking silver.
>>17500280
no detailer wants to spend 12 hours correcting their own paint after getting off work when they do it all day every day, that's why I like easy to maintain colors, fuck you.
>>17500150
Yellow looks great on the right car. Pic related is mine

Definition of a McMansion: any house bigger than mine
Black cars look the best but it requires a lot of detail to keep them looking good. Even the smaller speck of dust shows up on a black car.
>>17500345
Wew that looks fucking nice.
>>17501943
>>17499776
Like every manufacturer, few people pick more distinct colors because resale value and shit.
>>17497463
it is a lot more practical desu. 1.st the car looks newer in silver (my second gen neon looks a lot more ''fresh'' than in maroon/red.
2. The cars condition is not so obvious- it can be dirty/scratched to a larger degree than black/white/ any other color.
>>17500345
I don't think any car's worn yellow quite as well as the original murcielago. Not even the yellowbird or other lambos.
>>17502497
It's retarded. I can understand pink but dark green or crimson red should be top tier value. (Actually is for those searching it) silver and beige should get a tasteless discount.
>>17502991
That's orange you turd

It is a dark yellow sure, but if you think that is orange you're colour blind or your monitor settings are out.
>>17502531
> colors that aren't red
lmao plebs
silver on exciting cars is elder god tier
silver on boring cars is cold trash tier
>>17503151
>>17503185
>Not realizing you can have different shades of orange
Dark yellow is basically either orange or brown depending on how dark it is.
>>17503164
As nice as that looks, red is only for Italian cars. Sorry man.
Silver is ok but it needs non silver accents, black trim works fine
>>17503196
Sure but where does yellow end and orange start?
Also check the shoop
>>17503200
"No"
>>17503202
Love R5s hnnngg
>>17503200
Rosso Corsa is for italian cars, you mean.
>>17503202
It's actually really fucking weird. I googled "Orange RWB Porsche" and that picture came up. Then I googled "Yellow RWB Porsche" and the same car came up again. Also, that Turbo looks more red than Orange.
>>17503221
Oh yeah bro
I know thats a red R5 I just put it up cause its beautiful.
Haha oh well, I guess its an Orange Yellow, or a Yellow Orange.

It looks elegant, strong and beautiful.
>>17503385
Imma let you finish.
I love the raw metal look
>>17503214
colour looks good, shame the suspension is broken.
>>17497463
Metallic dark green will always be superior. Except if it's a mercedes, but they in turn can't look good in anything but silver.
Can't beat this.
>>17504192
This vehicle is wrapped with xpel stealth or suntek matte, but either way looks sick
>>17500258
I was gonna say this but you already said it. Silver is a great color for hiding dirt and scratches. Especially if you live on or drive on gravel roads. I own 3 cars in silver and Id buy more in that color if i had a choice.
>>17497463
I've been in the car business my entire life. There's no way in hell that brown/beige exterior is the number 6 color option. Not a chance in hell.
Unless this was a survey of strictly Lexus owners. I don't know what it is about Lexus owners and Beige.
>>17500020
We all know white is the best color.
