I agree, its all very fifty shades of grey
When you look at the graphic with all of the colours on it, only the red and the lapiz blue standout to me.
... at the risk of derailing this thread again...
Some of my work involves digital light projectors and information display screens. One of the things I have had to learn about is contrast and the effects of ambient light. Customers would complain that they could not read their display screens very well. I had to point out that blue text on a grey background might look really cool on a computer screen in a relatively dark office, but was not at all suitable for a display screen in a brightly light reception area.
... my point is that white cars are not going to stand out against a white background. If the background colour was black you would find that the white cars would stand out the most.
Red will only stand out when there is lots of light. Go to any car park during daylight and the red cars will really stand out. Go to a car park at night and it will be hard to distinguish red cars from black cars. Unless the car park has good lighting or you are really close to them.
I agree that people should just buy the colour they like. However, I have had that phone call we all dread... "There's been an accident..." Thankfully my wife was ok when someone didn't see her and pulled out of a junction
It was just her car that went to the great scrapyard in the sky. For the record - it was a silver Polo and it was daylight.
There was a man, woman and baby in the other car. They were all fine too. The woman claimed for personal injury for herself and the baby. Even though the baby slept through the whole thing
