I read somewhere probably 2 years ago or more that 70% of new cars sold are white, black, gray, or silver. I honestly would have put it at 85% based on the cars I see locally and their colors. When I ordered my new 2017 Camaro 1SS I ordered it in Red Hot, and I love that color. In a cloth interior I could only get black or gray. I ordered black.

I definitely would not buy a new car in white, black, gray, or silver, or any of those pastel colors that seem to be quite common on Toyotas. I like colors on a car like shades of red, blue, green, even gold. I've always liked interiors in white, gold, bright blue, and red.

Could not agree more about the shades of gray these days. So many look like shiny primer with no depth to the color, kind of like a battleship gray. Silver and gray have been played to the end. One color that I think has stood the test of time on newer cars is Mazda Soul Red. It looks great on almost any color vehicle.
