What inspires people to go into a dealership, be able to order a car in any fucking color they want but pick white or black (or if they can't decide between the two) Gray. There's an entire rainbow out there and they pick white. What inspires these people to do this
90-something percent of the time people are just picking a car off the lot. They're not making custom orders.
Last time I bought a car they found a car with the options I wanted and the color I wanted and had it shipped to the dealer for delivery. Took about a week which gave me time to go over all the finance paperwork. I can't imagine showing up to a place spending 50k on a car and going meh just give me whatever you got back there
some people cant wait a week to get a car. by the time you get it you've already lost your job.
How desperately impoverished and financially irresponsible do you have to be to be buying new when you only have one car to rely on with literally no options to get to work
>How desperately impoverished and financially irresponsible do you have to be
if you have to ask...
>sample size of a thousand people
Lol they could've exclusively asked people living in Manhattan, completely worthless data
>What is the law of large numbers?
statistics are israeli
I abuse coupons for meal delivery services and get a weeks worth of healthy precooked food for 50-80 bucks a week.
actually there isnt the entire rainbow, usually just a dark red, a dark blue, and a bunch of grayscales. most people simply dont care, or they dont want to stand out
Muh resale value
in a lot of cases you've got no real choice, and secondly everyone's concerned about
>What inspires these people to do this
It's really simple anon. 80% of people either don't like cars or don't like driving. But all these people still need to buy a car so they can go to work. Think from this persons perspective if you will. They want convenience of buying something on the lot and not waiting 2 months for the factory to build a car just for the dealership to sell it to someone else.
They also want something that you can put a lot of shit in and as a bonus it's less likely to get flood damage.
>waiting 2 months for the factory to build a car just for the dealership to sell it to someone else
Is this really a thing? I thought all you had to do was get an order form, bring it to the dealer, get it signed by the sales manager, and put a deposit down. You're telling me that after all that and waiting months for the car to get there, the dealer can still decide to fuck you over and sell the car to someone else or keep it for themselves? What the fuck is wrong with these ghouls?
Pretty sure they can't, its usually paid for and registered before delivery.
Say I'm buying a truck. What color should it be? Trucks look fucking stupid in red, blue or yellow. What colors does that leave?
green
Dark/hunter green doesn't exist for trucks anymore. Army green is extremely cringe.
This, I was excited to buy a Dodge ram with this green that looked very close to forest service green but the next model year came out and that color was no longer available and that color didnt exist in the used market. Made me very sad
>go to buy a new car
>i want a COOL color, no npc black white or grey!
>you can either have dark red or dark blue
white or black looks better than dark red or dark blue 99% of the time. npc grey does confuse me I'll admit.
>there's an entire rainbow out there
you realize you still have to pick one of the few colors the car comes in, right? if you want a different color you'll have to repaint or wrap the car which is easier to do with white or black.
Honda seems to be the worst automaker for color options. Even their sport models rarely have anything outside of a unique color blue.
>all the color options suck
>pick one of the least sucky of the bunch
>LULZ bullies me for it
I think black looks neat though on everything, but too high maintenance and hot. And it’s the best but that’s why so many NPCs and sheeple get it
Yellow is the worst car color hands down. There's a reason why nobody buys yellow cars.
Yellow has the highest resale value.
Cope harder, I bet you have a grayscale car
Who told you that lol? Ferrari red is called resale red for a reason. My vehicles are blue and gold because I'm not an attention whore.
It’s a well researched statistical fact that yellow is the best.
Also bitches love yellow
The only reason I didn't pick yellow for my Golf is because it clashed with the red GTI accents. If the accents were silver like the R I would've picked yellow without question.
I think red accents on yellow work great actually.
The contrast really makes them pop, depending on what it looks like it can be a great styling choice.
Dunno why it gets so much hate.
I'm lovin it
Ferraris only look good in yellow don't @me
People buy cars in lime green and burgundy. Yellow is quite palatable in comparison
when i ordered new car earlier this year I, no wait I can look up what the color selection was just a sec.
>white
>black
>some kinda milky blue
>grey
>metallic grey (+750)
>metallic black (+750)
>metallic white (+750)
>red (only available on the more expensive trim)
>blue (only available on the more expensive trim)
I chose white. I like white. I think white looks nice and I like that my car blends in. When you see my car driving down the street you barely register that it's there. You think that's a car and then you forget immediately. That's what I wanted.
What I hate is how paint primer gray became the new hotness. It looks like the car came from the factory unfinished and yet people I know IRL call it "sleek". I don't get it.
With the black it looks sleeker while with a silver or white it will pop more because of the contrast. Those colors don’t look bad with tints, black wheels and trimming but they clash naturally
>I don't get it
Normies are unironic NPC's and trying to understand them is a fruitless endeavour if i ever seen one.
I think I’d rather take black over these gun metal lead grays but silver over white
The npc grays vary across brands and some are adjusting them model to model. The cement gray was a start but some like Toyota added undertones of lime green to their lunar gray and Honda with the baby blue. Then there’s Subaru where I’m too lazy to see if they actually wanted an ice color or added to much light blue to their light gray
Reds keep pushing towards the metallic shiny Mazda type and blues tended to be navy. If manufacturers do any sort of bubble gum enamel type colors it’s getting pushed more as a premium add on or it has to be a high volume model
It's called not being rich idiot.
90% of the base models these days only allow black, white, silver or grey (at best).
You have to dish out another 3 to 5 grand for a higher trim plus 300 to 500 dollars for coloured paint on top of that.
Same with the interior.
Base models have literally one option (black cloth).
Americans/Canadians/Europeans are getting poorer every year due to wages not keeping up with inflation and none of the non-shit car brands allow you to color base models anymore with anything less bland than white/silver/black.
If you can't afford to buy a car in the colors and options you want then you don't deserve to buy new. Its simple as that
Stfu.
The base models of even the lowest tier new car's these days are like 30 grand before taxes where I live.
And no I'm not buying a fucking Nissan.
Every model above base is like 5 grand more (before taxes) and interest rates are like 7-9 percent rn where I live.
Go fuck your mom.
Sounds like a poverty issue. Have you tried getting a real job? Maybe you can afford something nice like a Camaro
Maybe they like that color
I ordered a new car in blue last Oct and was quoted a 6 month ETA. May rolls around, my car still doesn't even have a projected build date yet. An identically specced gray car shows up on the lot, I say fuck it and get that one instead. Want to get it repainted later on, don't know what color yet.
A generic as fuck cuckover doesn't need to be lime green. Bright colors just attract attention which is usually negative.
I'll have 2 tone, matte silver on top, metallic orange on the bottom.
