I don't know if you can see that, this is a short article in Economist (I am a subscriber):

Well, OK, in Europe black is more popular.

I do like white, but don't have the cahoonas to buy a white car - too worried about resale problems.  Albiet my worries may now be unfounded.

maybe not, since Europeans like black more.
Actually, white is hard to sell, I read statistics a few months ago...
I think white is chosen by braver people (because of the lower resale value, because of "cheap color"-stigma, etc)

Right, "I like to be like everybody else" it says.  :wink:

And the club is getting bigger and bigger and bigger... soon you will not notice any difference between Golf, GTI, and GTI E30 - they are all just black...
