Default Car colors broken down to personality traits

I pulled this fom another source.
I did not make this up... No really I didn't.
Car colors and what they say about you:

Black cars denote an aggressive personality or someone who's an outsider or rebel.
Silver cars indicate someone who's cool, calm and slightly aloof.
Green cars can often be chosen by people with hysterical tendencies.
Yellow cars signify someone who is idealistic and novelty loving.
Blue cars are chosen by the more introspective, reflective and cautious driver.
Gray cars represent those who are calm, sober and dedicated to their work.
Red cars denote those who are full of zest, energy and drive and who think, move and talk quickly.
Pink cars are chosen by gentle, loving and affectionate drivers.
White cars represent status-seeking extrovert drivers.
Cream cars are the least likely to be involved in accidents and denote self-contained and controlled owners.

Now I'm confused. I have two read cars, one cream and one black.

I have a white car, but the color choice was dictated by the available market.

I have a gold car, but the color choice was dictated by the desire to have a tan leather interior, and gold was the only available color at the time of purchase.

ALL of my toy cars have been black. My BMW was black. My Porsche was black. My Cobra will be black (note that I rebelliously selected the 289 FIA...).

I guess that makes me an aggressive rebellious outsider.

Could be worse...

JB,

It means that you are confused.

Sorry, I am just being hysterical.

Cheers!

Default Car colors

ALL my cars are black...
guess that means I'm a rebelious outsider?

Maybe we should find out how many cobra colors people have in the club.
ie; how many blue, red green etc.
That would be interesting.

That would be "aggressive, rebellious outsider".

Is this where we get the term "AggRO"?

Default curious..........

so......considering my car is to be 'natural' with no color......could that mean .............I am a nature seeking sloth, with no personality, love the simple life, walk to the store 'naked' and seek only things that land in my lap...........OR.....am i just an opulent fool that can't even choose a color??????
hummmmmm........I'm confused, ...no maybe histerical........or, wait.......might be happy, just not content......oh the heck with it........Im going to sleep!

I have silver, blue and green cars.

Therefore I'm cool, calm, slightly aloof, introspective, reflective and a cautious driver with hysterical tendencies.

I'm off to see my psychiatrist. But which color car should I take???????

I guess that means your a hysterical person that will not frequently get in to accidents, because you are also a more introspective, reflective and cautious driver???

I'm so conflicted...

I really wanted a blue Cobra but there were so many blue ones that I picked green because I wanted to, you know, be different (actually, my wife told me I could have a Cobra if I got a green one. ). My truck is blue but I bought it because it was huge and I could use it to intimidate other drivers. My motorcycle is black, but I'm afraid to drive it anymore. Peggy has a green Expedition because, well, green is her favorite color. Her Miata is Black Cherry whatever that means... And her motorcycle is blue but she hardly rides it anymore since she got the Miata.

Hey...what about those guys who polish their cars? There must be some kind of Freudian implications there...

I am hoping pastel beige is closer to creme than white...I have been noted for having blue cars (at one time I had 5 of them at one time), and my purpose built track car is black.

There might be something to this after all....
