I am partial to blue. If there is any chrome on the car it will get lost with white or grey, but will stand out with blue.

by definition white and black are non-colors. White reflects all light and black absorbs all light. Grey reflects a percentage of the entire spectrum. I personally don't like black and grey. Black shows any and every speckle of dust/and dirt, but it looks fantastic after a wash for all of 2 minutes.
Grey is actually a risk factor: look around in your average concrete jungle: grey everywhere. How about a cloudy or foggy day? The grey car does not contrast from the surroundings. Thank god for daytime running lights. Back in the eighties, before DRLs were common I met an older gentleman, in his 70's I guess. He recently had 2 accidents and both times he was pulling out in front of an oncoming vehicle. What color were they? Grey. His aging eyes did not see them for lack of contrast.

But color is a taste thing. What colors do like when choosing cloths?

Red is nice, yellow can be good or not but is one of the easiest colors to see on the road. Green is out. Purple is cool (not light purple). Chicks love pink!?
