    Love having colorful cars specifically because they stand out in a parking lot against these lol. I mean I don’t love having to have a car in general but yeah.

    I know that flat white, flat black, and flat grey are the cheapest possible paint colours but something about the nardofication of cars just smacks of reaction to me.

    Capitalists can’t even bother making things fun anymore. It’s all boring with the express intent of squeezing as much out of consumers as possible

    This can’t be true. My neighbors car is Purple and is a 25 plate. Might have been a US based survey though.
