Yellow cars ...signify someone who is idealistic and novelty loving.
Blue cars ...are chosen by the more introspective, reflective and cautious driver.
Gray cars... represent those who are calm, sober and dedicated to their work.
Red cars ...denote those who are full of zest, energy and drive and who think, move and talk quickly.
Pink cars... are chosen by gentle, loving and affectionate drivers.
White cars... represent status-seeking extrovert drivers.
Cream cars... are the least likely to be involved in accidents and denote self-contained and controlled owners.

or this....

Red car indicates that you are a passionate person. You are a "take charge" kind of individual and you are at least a little wild. If you are thinking of buying a red car keep in mind that red cars still have the highest rate of theft and the highest insurance rates than any other color vehicle. Bright red paint also subconsciously sends the message that the owner is in a higher income bracket.

Orange vehicle is exceedingly hard to find. If you have an orange car you most likely crave attention. You are also generally a happy and upbeat person who enjoys being unique.

Yellow cars
indicate you are confident. You like to have fun and you embrace the child within.

Green is the color of nature. The person who chooses a green car is conscientious. They tend to be the go-to person in tense situations because they know how to keep their emotions in balance.

If your car is dark blue you are likely a very loyal person. You value relationships over wealth and you are calm. Rather than stand out, you like to blend in. If your car is light blue you are serene and peaceful. You also have a strong maternal instinct.

Purple. This is the color of royalty. If you have found a purple car you are a cherished individual who loves beauty, but walks with strength and purpose.

There are few pink cars out there, but they can be found. If you have a pink car, you like to be treated with a soft touch. You like to smile and you think good health is important.

If you have a brown car that signifies that you are reliable. You are true to yourself and to those around you. You are earthy and don't engage in "showboating." You are approachable, responsible and worthy of friendship.

A slick black car is the epitome of power and authority. Think CIA or Secret Service. If you have a black car, you are sending the message that you are in control and are self-assured.

There are many white cars on the road. What they say about their owners has a lot to do with their upkeep. A clean white car shows that you pay attention to detail. You are careful and pure. A dirty white car makes you look sloppy and indifferent.

Although gray often represents the dreary and depressing in clothes, furniture and paint, that is not the case with your gray car. A gray car is a comfortable one. It represents stability and self-reliance.

Silver cars represent prestige, wealth and luxury. The newer and shinier the car, the more this will come across.

A gold car represents wealth and pride. If you have a gold car, you likely want to be noticed. You want people to know you do not lack financially and you are independent.
______________________________________________

Frankly I think car colors don't mean anything.

I've owned 2 red cars, a brown car, 2 beige cars, a white car, 2 blue cars, one light & one dark, and a dark green car.

I don't buying a car the same car color as my last one and I avoid owning 2 cars of the same color at the same time.

My Z is Silverstone and my daily drive Maxima is Blue Pearl.
So what does that say of me?
I didnt get Daytona Blue because maternal instincts lol... its because it fawking rox and everyone one the streets love it ;D

Red, blue, orange, yellow, purple, etc.. = knows what he/she wants. Usually leaders, not followers. Don't care what others think. Bold. Less of these at stealerships so not as common on the roads. Not scared to step outside the box & be different.

You all calling the bold colored Z's attention ****** are just jealous because they get more attention. Why do you drive a Z? Because it looks good performs well AND gets "attention" because of its appearance! If you don't care about your care getting attention, get an econo box with a good powerplant such as an STI or an Evo.
i totally agree

My favorite color! Brickyard doesn't change color in the sun, IF does. Some of the shades are deep purple, copper, root beer, and sometimes black berry. It all depends on the lighting.

Too many Z's out on the street with bland colors like white, black, and most of all silver (all shades of them), which is alright, but IF sticks out and looks exotic IMO.

that is BULL. I have a ppw becuase i looks clean as hell against my hyper black racing harts. my personallity isn't "drab, boring, plain" AT ALL. I think white cars look clean.

black is mean, red is sporty, silver is boring, silverstone is alright, lemans in daring, brickyard is different, orange and yellow are too much, i think old man trying too hard.

Yeah, you either love it or hate it.

Brickyard is the LESS brown/copper of the two; more dark red, maroon, maybe even purple.

IF is the one with a manure brown ( ) cast to it at certain angles.

I don't like either color in question. But that's just my preference.
