I've often wished that more vehicles were available in these highly visible colors. I really don't like driving a gray van on a gray road in the rain.

- bmurray7jhu 4y agoSo did I, so I wrapped my car orange: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ru4EBj1SibVu1sqj6 https://photos.app.goo.gl/ru4EBj1SibVu1sqj6
- jtbayly 4y agoAlright, I just added Google Photos to the list of links I won’t click anymore. What purpose does it serve to break the back button?
- Gibbon1 4y agoBecause google wants to choose what you see and where you go next. The back button is an escape. So they don't want that to work.
- lm28469 4y agoIt works fine on chrome and firefox for me
- jtbayly 4y ago(I’m on iOS.)
- lm28469 4y agoLooks like it only breaks on safari/ios Works fine on windows on all browsers, works fine on osx with chrome/firefox, doesn't work with safari though
- philposting 4y agoThe back button also breaks for me on macOS Safari.
- ajdude 4y agoSame here. I finally got back after rapidly tapping the back button enough times.
- ilikepi 4y agoI hate this redirect nonsense as well. FYI though, if you tap-and-hold on the back button on Mobile Safari, you'll get a menu of the last 10-ish pages you were on.
- davchana 4y agoOn Android Chrome too, but the back usually located at bottom of screen (the system back, Android Chrome doesn't have its own back).
- dijit 4y agoHijacked for Safari on MacOS for me.
- smcl 4y agoI wasn't prepared for how good that looked. I'm not a big fan of orange, but for some reason it really works on that car. Great job :)
- contact9879 4y agoNot the exact same color, but the GR86 is available in orange already. https://www.toyota.com/gr86/ https://www.toyota.com/gr86/
- bmurray7jhu 4y agoOrange was introduced for MY2023, but was not available when I bought it in 2022.
- joshu 4y agoMy spec Miata is painted orange. Was supposed to be mclaren orange (called papaya) https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a21083825/for-a-weekend-california-racetrack-becomes-a-self-driving-playground/ https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a21083825/for-a-weekend-ca... The next one will be closer to vinyl Oracal orange (so damage can be more easily hidden) The shop that makes these has gone for even higher visibility. Yellow and green highlighter colors.
- JasonFruit 4y agoSweet.
- sandworm101 4y agoAs another poster said, just wrap it in whatever color you want. Costs start around 2500$, but that is far cheaper than a paint job and you can get any color you want, without worry about resale value. Personally, i like a matte finish.. something unheard of on production cars. Wrap is an easy way to the effect without repainting.
- eru 4y ago> Personally, i like a matte finish.. something unheard of on production cars. Interesting. I've seen a number of matte black cars on the streets. Are those all after-market modifications?
- kube-system 4y agoMatte paint is available on some cars from the factory, most notably, some German luxury cars.
- jabl 4y agoYeah, matte colors seems to be a trendy thing these days. Or IIRC I read somewhere, the current trendy matte colors aren't as much matte as lacking the highly reflective metal flakes of the popular "metal colors". So it's still a kind of glossy color.
- jabl 4y agoWhite is highly visible (except maybe in a snow storm!) and a fairly popular vehicle color. There was a study in Australia about this: https://www.monash.edu/__data/assets/pdf_file/0007/216475/An-investigation-into-the-relationship-between-vehicle-colour-and-crash-risk.pdf https://www.monash.edu/__data/assets/pdf_file/0007/216475/An...
