Car colours

It looks like we are moving rapidly towards the bland - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-10...ochrome-than-ever-before-data-shows/104451484
I own one blue, one silver, one brown/grey and one red. What does that say?

Blue, Red, Silver, Grey and White over here.
Or, for the printers out there, PMS 549, 485, CG6 and Translucent White

I've been complaining for the last decade about Mercedes colours (and car colours in general) in Australia particularly.
M-B for example would have all sorts of bright colours on its cheaper cars, mainly A-Class but would refer back to the boring Black/White/Dark Blue and fifty shades of Grey.
And i'm in the same boat as others:
3 Silver, 2 Red, 2 Gold/Bronze, 1 Gray, 2 Blue and 1 Green

The stunning red my wife’s BYD came in will be discontinued for the facelift when it comes next year.
What a shame.

That is a shame, its nice seeing that colour around. The deep cherry red some Mazdas are painted in is also one of the best new car colours.

My sister almost went with a used leaf, since they discontinued the yellow, but they at least still had the red.
