Black also radiates heat the fastest of any color so you don't want to be stuck somewhere cold at night with a black car. Maybe a chameleon, during cold periods, black during the day to absorb the heat, and white at night to cut down the heat radiation the other way around during hot spells.

You obviously have never stepped on concrete in the hot CA sun. You won't notice the concrete sidewalk any cooler than the asphalt street pavement!

BTW, the moment you drive a car longer (more years) than it's expected life-time, you should actually considered to be a recycler and get a tax cut.
The same applies if you rebuild an engine and not throw it away.
