Car Color

It's red. I would never have chosen a red car or a coupe... but my mom and dad needed to go from two cars to one at about the same time as my previous car (also a Saturn) was approaching really high mileage. I love the back doors that open from the center (my dad and I call those the 007 doors because they remind us of something from a James Bond movie). It's good with gas. I know three things about my next car: it won't be a Saturn

, it will probably be a sedan and it will have 4 doors. I had the teal green Saturn when that was their most popular color; then I had light blue when that was their best selling color!

This isn't mine, it's a media photo.

My brother has a Ford Fusion that he really likes. It has a great sound system and got good safety ratings. It just feels stable when I drive it.

Hmmm, I chose both green and blue because my car is Teal. It's a Scion xB, which is becoming popular. I was tired on the basic colors including RED. It is different.

This is mine at the dealer.

These are the same model in better light.

I wanted a white "pearly" car. It's more white than pearly. I've pretty much wished for another color since I've had it but I'm thankful I have it.

I couldn't stand white as a color. The dirt showed so easily. And red fades.

My truck is dark gray. I too have noticed there are a lot of silver cars around, even in the parking lot at work!

My Hyundai Elantra is white. There's also a silver corolla, silver honda insight, and a taupe Lincoln LS on the driveway. My sister has a maroon saturn. I don't really like silver cars, I feel they are a bit too common for my liking. I wanted a dark blue color, but I don't like how mud shows so easily on that color either.

Maybe I'm weird but I think white hides alot of the dirt. My friends always think my car is clean on the outside. Someone asked me the other day if I wash it everyday, which I DON'T lol.

I plan on hopefully buying a truck (Ranger or Bronco) in the next few years and want red, dark grey, forest green, or black one.

My first two cars were white. Most of the time the cars appeared a light beige or yellow depending on the time of year. I do like my green car.

I totally agree with you that white hides the dirt. With my Camero and Mustang I didn't realize how dirty there were until I started washing it and swiped it with the sponge or cloth I was using. That's why I wanted a white Jetta. Silver is close enough.

When it is clean it sparkles.

I always had white cars, but my Honda CRV is sage, my fave color! Depending on the light, it sometimes look bluish, but "Carla" is beautiful.

Midnight Blue Metallic - wasn't sure I'd like it and I really wanted the Black Metallic, but in the end, my car is unique and I never see one the same color as mine. Don't know if that is good or bad, but I like it!
