some cars simply look better in certain colors.
A guy I worked with once said black is the perfect color because the ugliest car will still look good in black. True dat, but I also think of black as and ego-power color and that's not my style. Plus I don't like the maintenance requirement of a black chariot.
I like silver and white for their casual visibility to other drivers and lower bathing needs. But they also blend into traffic and also seem less noticeable to the guys who run radar and write tickets. In Saab colors I find my Citrin Beige 9000 is a near ideal color. My white '95 9K is also good. Our '03 9-5, in steel gray is too dark, but still not bad. It'll make me wash it more in winter. But I love the sun green Saab had a few years back.
