Red 4GS..
Most of the cars I see around me are black, white, or gray. I wanted something different. A few days ago we got curbside pickup at the ice cream shop. I told them "It's the red car." They didn't need any more information to bring us our ice cream.

I am sure the Red GS is a nice looking color, but let me tell you, I washed and put on the Meguiars Ceramic Hybrid liquid wax (which I give a thumbs up), and on my Liquid Platinum, in the Florida sun, it was blinding. Literally blinding to look at. And it did not rain yesterday, so today, it is still shiny and blinding. Just think if I put a topper coat of Carnauba wax on it. I think the astronauts from the Space Station may see it, like they do the Luxor light in Vegas. Just a little levity in this wonderful country we seem to be living in at the moment.

After this thread started, I started looking around me. After black, white, and gray, red seems to be the most common color for a car. My parents had a yellow 1977 Chevy Caprice. Yellow wasn't a big deal back then. Today it would stand out like a sore thumb. How did car paint get so boring?
Yellow **** carpeting wasn't a big deal back then, either. 
Car paint isn't boring - people just choose to stay the normal course. When a manufacturer pumps out some "abnormal" colors and all of those cars collect dust on a lot, that manufacturer doesn't try it again. They hold those for built to order specs.
Take the orange RC - I think it's amazing but there's no way every dealer buys one and hopes someone bites. Their chance of selling a black version is greater and will take less time = more profit.
Same principle with interior colors - a lot of people here greatly value the red interior, but the general population prefers tan or grey. Dealers ordered those interior colors, so the majority of cars out there have them.
