Which do you think is the ugliest color for cars?
I've always had preference for Blue or silver - easiest to keep clean.

Ugliest --- That burnt orange color I see on a lot of Chevy POS cars

Best --- I like silver

Wtf

Purple, Pink are not common colors for cars

Yellow and Orange looks really nice on lambos or ferraris

 

[clamum]

For me, worst = white; best = black.

The only car that has any business being yellow is a VW Beetle.
Or a taxi.

I saw this 2007 Grand Prix with a teal color, that was the worst color i've ever seen. You didnt' have that as an option, so I chose purple, a close second.

My name is green and I am a very common colour for a vehicle.

Green for me too. Red's the ugliest. I'd have voted pink, but I don't consider that common.

White, black.

What colors don't look nice on lambos or ferraris?

I think if you take your average nice car, of all the colors that are somewhat common, yellow always looks the worst and black or white (pearl white) looks the best.

What about ferraris

 

[zinfamous]

I wouldn't say that yellow is actually "common" for a car, even though it is indeed the ugliest, by far.

why is grey not on either list? It may just be the most common car color.

 

[Crono]

Any bright color has the potential to be a bad color for a car. Dark colors generally are good choices.
You can't go wrong with black, silver, or dark blue. Red looks best on sports cars, and yellow looks good only on some sports cars (still too flashy a color, though).

 

[Saint Nick]

Did you erase pink from the poll?

 

[miketheidiot]

gunmetal is the best

worst is 'champaign' colored cars

 

[lxskllr]

I like yellow cars. It looks especially sharp on SUVs that have black trim parts(roof rack, brush guard...)

BS. Red/Black/Silver/Dark Grey are all > yellow on Ferrari/Lambo/etc.

Agreed, it seems that any color on a Ferrari or Lambo looks good. Hell even lime green looks good.

I can't stand the bright, flat red color that is on about 1/3 of every pontiac produced in the last 10 years. It just looks like some $200 MAC bargain bin paint job.

The deep reds & metalic burgandy's look nice, but that obnoxious red just looks ugly.
