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.

That's a shame that it chips so much I guess, as I've always thought it looked a lot like candy apple red.

Grey or battleship grey was a popular color for European cars after WW2. Mercedes, BMW, VW and others like the Fiat I was looking at in Hershey last fall seem to have offered this color up through the 60's.
