Why are there so many black mk2's?

[Goldy]

When I was looking for my car, just over a year ago, I couldn't find a black mr2 for love nor money, every one was either red, or that funny blue/green colour. Now virtually every other mr2 I see is black, I haven't seen a red one on the roads for ages!

Were more made in black? or is it that the red ones get broken when the paint fades? Maybe people are more likely to crash into brighter colours?

Anyone got an explanation?

There's loads of red ones around still, it's the most common colour, it's just the pink they've turned into doesn't grab you attention anymore.

Black is best.

I heard the red ones go faster

i remember a time when i first got my car that the black ones were werth and fetched more money because the colour was so desirable..... not werth more now, but it is just a case that black is a popular colour.....
personally, black is crap

Added a poll now.... it would be intresting to see how many people own what colours

Great idea, but you've set it up with hidden results.

I didn't set it up with hidden results

The only thing i can do is set it to expire :S wtf

Just set it to expire in say 2 weeks, most people would have seen it by then.

I don't like being an 'other'. Couldn't you have added a yellow choice?

[nitric4k]

mines the best...........i meant whites the best......

But Shrek had a donkey not a white MR2?

[kaitaz]

'Whites the best'

NEVER!

I used to have one of the green/blue tubbys but I was amazed at how stunning my yellow one is.

I prefer to stand out and be different rather than just blend in...

when you say the red ones go faster do you mean the paint colour goes faster

The psycology of colours :

What does your car say about you :

Black can represent the antithesis of white and is known to symbolize white's opposites: the "bad guys" and deceit. It is the color of funerals, death, and mourning. The "Black Market" and "Black Monday" are examples of the negative representation this color has on us. However, it is better to be "in the black" than "in the red."

Says it all really.
