IMO there's a few reasons for black cars.
Some people buy what's there and in good nick.
Some people are very conservative and only like black.
I used to only like dark coloured cars but instantly fell in love with my gheymobile and now I think thats the best colour!
It gets stick for being the gheyest colour in the village but it suits the car!
My '2' and my previous Pug 106 have been black. Didn't necessarily want to stick with this colour but it was the nicest one I'd seen and black doesn't seem to fade, mine is 13 years old but still shines as good as most other modern cars. Red cars always fade even when waxed/polished which is a shame as I like that colour. If I ever changed cars I'd fancy a change of colour next time, maybe blue or silver.
Black is an 'unpopular' colour in Japan, and so a lot of grey import performance cars here turn out to be black...
The Japs go nuts for white cars, being the national racing colour.

Red fades because as a rule, red cars arent laquered.
