Default Re: 2020 Car Colour Trends

I'm a fan of bright white cars, especially LWB stuff.

Black or white LWB sedans - Mafia cars, or Melbourne airport fancy taxis more appropriately

But that Nitro and Octane colour on the FG Falcon was absolutely mint, same with the VE/VF SS in that bright green colour.

Bugger.

I guess you look at the added expense of getting front end film protection all over it ... just to save heartache later down the track.

Soul Crystal Red would be my choice too.

On the rear visibility, it absolutely terrible on the hatch. I can jump into any car and drive no worries, the 3 hatch was a challenge. I would imagine it is costing Mazda sales.

its sad so many cars are white, grey, silver or gun metal
i'm looking out my office window there are 9 cars
2 white, 2 black, 2 gunmetal, 2 silver and 1 red but that a 90's civic faded to pink
All this talk of blue reminds me of that scene from The devil wears Prada
