Purple really had its heyday in '95. Seems like that was the most fun time for car colors. Now, we continue to slink into grayscale.

At least white cars are easier to cool. That's going to be more important with EVs.

I live in Texas, and I'm shocked that cars with black exteriors AND black, LEATHER interiors exist.

I have a friend with a car like that. If he parks for more than 2p minutes, he has to start the thing 10 minutes before he leaves just so he can actually sit down without getting burned or frozen.

Even without the exterior being black, it blows my mind that the best majority (I'd estimate about 80%) of cars on the market here have black interiors. It's absurd.

Ahh yes, the time of PT Cruisers and Mini Coopers
