In my eyes, any car that's grey, white, or black is saying "I care more about preserving my car's financial resale value than expressing my personality", which is rather sad and pathetic. In my eyes. It's a move that says you've capitulated in some small, symbolic way. Give me green, yellow, blue- anything but white. I feel the same way about painting every room in your house white. Why make your home look like the lobby of a bank? You're going to take no risks at all now? Every place you live is just a longer term hotel? Ugh. Just stuff yourself and mount yourself on the wall and be done with it.
- jabl 4y agoBecause I have little desire to "express my personality" through my choice of car? I don't particularly like cars. I don't particularly enjoy driving a car. I hate traffic. Driving on a racetrack can be fun, I admit. But I have zero desire to accidentally run over some kid on a normal road in some testosterone-fueled show-off, and drive accordingly, which is responsible but effing boring. I have a car because it's convenient. As for car color, gray is fine because I can basically forget about ever needing to wash it, and it's easier to sell when the time comes.
- fallingfrog 4y agoYeah, I guess I can understand that. I work from home and I hardly ever drive. Honestly I'd prefer that public transportation was better so that I didn't need a car at all.
