Black if you're a lazy shithead who can't be fucked to take care of his car. Otherwise any pastel color.

matte black
agree on silver like in pic, but dark silver/grey looks great

Easily White, so fucking bland and played out, unless it's a fleet vehicle. The select few cars that CAN pull it off would look 1000x better in another color. Dirty white cars look like used bars of soap, dirty black cars look grey and not as bad.

Disclaimer: I have a silver e60. I think sliver has got something going for it. In combination with the sun it can create the most impressive bright colorful gradients which perfectly display the shape of the car (pic related). That's why it's usually prefered by car designers. But on the other hand in usual lighting conditions it can look pretty bland - grey. I think the silver can work on some cars and can't on others. Also the silver-black combination (without chrome!) with possibly black wheels can be pretty stunning and can seem very high contrast, much more than white-black combination (because silver is reflective). On the other hand black + silver wheels is a much "safer" combination and usually looks more aggressive - more manly. Darkened silvers can also look aggressive. I have a silver E60 but I think a black one would be more straightforward and simple. Silver requires some effort and good lighting to be appreciated.

I also think that the trend of white cars is on it's decline (though it will be there for ever but the amount of white Audis and BMWs is lessening - it's more and more white thrash here) and the silver-black combination is gaining in popularity. New cars such as BMW F10 are made to look stunning in this combo. And I think this will be (is) the new trendy combo for the next 4-5 years.

Black is my vote, even when clean it doesn't show lines and curves well, and never "pops" like some colors do. It sucks to keep clean, too.

White looks terrible on most cars, but it's the best color on a few. I might be biased, though.

I wouldn't do it in WRB's particular shade, I've seen one that was painted that color and it doesn't look quite right. Legacys need to be a more subtle color. I was thinking about maybe the Still Night Pearl that the 2013+ Accord Coupe comes in.

They look like shit on cheap econoboxes. Silver's pretty boring, but then again it depends on the shade and feel.

I would say the exact opposite. That kind of color fits shitboxes better, as we don't want to look at them. Supercars, tho, should be colorful as fuck.

What's the point buying a grey Aventador, you're gonna stand out anyway. Color is joy
