I am sure my next car will have some sort of visible/shiny color in orange, blue, red or similar but why have people discarded the nice variety of colors of the 70’s and 80’s? We have received some comments about resell value of the orange but with the intent of keeping the car for more than a few years the difference in resell value will be next to zero.

Are you into colors or fifty shades of grey? And why the gray shades? I also believe the colorfull cars are safer to drive because you are more visible.
The people that bought the fun colours are now all buying Porsches. I drive by a Porsche dealer everyday to work and I like to refer to it as a Skittles box based on what they are displaying for the freeway. #bmwlostitsway
