    A boring Sunday question...

    What is your favorite primary car color?[​IMG]
    Black....Yellow....Red....White....Blue....Green.. .Purple....Brown?
    What does that say about you??[​IMG]

    My latest hobby came to me yellow, but everything before that has always been red?[​IMG]

    I found these explanations on another site:

    Colors often have different meanings in various cultures. And even in Western societies, the meanings of various colors have changed over the years. But today in the U.S., researchers have generally found the following to be accurate.

    Black
    Black is the color of authority and power. It is popular in fashion because it makes people appear thinner. It is also stylish and timeless. Black also implies submission. Priests wear black to signify submission to God. Some fashion experts say a woman wearing black implies submission to men. Black outfits can also be overpowering, or make the wearer seem aloof or evil. Villains, such as Dracula, often wear black.

    White
    Brides wear white to symbolize innocence and purity. White reflects light and is considered a summer color. White is popular in decorating and in fashion because it is light, neutral, and goes with everything. However, white shows dirt and is therefore more difficult to keep clean than other colors. Doctors and nurses wear white to imply sterility.

    Red
    The most emotionally intense color, red stimulates a faster heartbeat and breathing. It is also the color of love. Red clothing gets noticed and makes the wearer appear heavier. Since it is an extreme color, red clothing might not help people in negotiations or confrontations. Red cars are popular targets for thieves. In decorating, red is usually used as an accent. Decorators say that red furniture should be perfect since it will attract attention.

    The most romantic color, pink, is more tranquilizing. Sports teams sometimes paint the locker rooms used by opposing teams bright pink so their opponents will lose energy.

    Blue
    The color of the sky and the ocean, blue is one of the most popular colors. It causes the opposite reaction as red. Peaceful, tranquil blue causes the body to produce calming chemicals, so it is often used in bedrooms. Blue can also be cold and depressing. Fashion consultants recommend wearing blue to job interviews because it symbolizes loyalty. People are more productive in blue rooms. Studies show weightlifters are able to handle heavier weights in blue gyms.

    Green
    Currently the most popular decorating color, green symbolizes nature. It is the easiest color on the eye and can improve vision. It is a calming, refreshing color. People waiting to appear on TV sit in "green rooms" to relax. Hospitals often use green because it relaxes patients. Brides in the Middle Ages wore green to symbolize fertility. Dark green is masculine, conservative, and implies wealth. However, seamstresses often refuse to use green thread on the eve of a fashion show for fear it will bring bad luck.

    Yellow
    Cheerful sunny yellow is an attention getter. While it is considered an optimistic color, people lose their tempers more often in yellow rooms, and babies will cry more. It is the most difficult color for the eye to take in, so it can be overpowering if overused. Yellow enhances concentration, hence its use for legal pads. It also speeds metabolism.

    Purple
    The color of royalty, purple connotes luxury, wealth, and sophistication. It is also feminine and romantic. However, because it is rare in nature, purple can appear artificial.

    Brown
    Solid, reliable brown is the color of earth and is abundant in nature. Light brown implies genuineness while dark brown is similar to wood or leather. Brown can also be sad and wistful. Men are more apt to say brown is one of their favorite colors.

    What is my car saying about me?

    Lately, it is saying for me to get a job so I can work on it and get it back on the road.

    You forgot Primer.
    Primer says either "I can't afford to paint my car right now" or "Fuck you, it IS painted"!

    Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word
    itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words -
    "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's
    why so is mankind.

    Most people don't realize that large pieces of coral, which have been
    painted brown and attached to the skull by common wood screws, can make
    a child look like a deer.

    what does this thread say about me?..... I have nothing better to do!

    Cars,machinery by their very essence are inanimate and therefore do not possess the ability to think, speak or rationalize. Much less to these pieces of machinery have the lungs or voice box necessary to utter anything.

    Wanna psycho analyze this color? Some one get me a Rorhschach test.

    This makes me glad I haven't poste in a year :)

    I said it before and I will say it again. I think all cars should be black, white or red. My daily is black, my truck is black, my chopper is black and white, my wifes car is white and my Ranchero will be black.
