What does your car color mean? 

Did you pick your car’s exterior color because it was the color of your last car, you found it pretty, or it was the only one left on the lot? Or did some subconscious impulse draw you to that hue? Whatever the reason, you may find it fun to know that your shade carries some meaning, as explained below.

White

According to Iseecars.com, an online car-search service, a little over 28 percent of the cars in Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura are white because the color reflects heat and keeps the interior cool. White also represents freshness and innocence, so if you choose it, you like simplicity, directness, and clean living.

Black

The second most popular choice in SoCal, black denotes sophistication and luxury and is often associated with power and mystery. If you like this color, you may like or be in a position of authority, strength, and control. Because it shows dirt easily, this shade is hard to maintain and makes for a hotter interior, so only true car enthusiasts are willing to pick it.

Gray

Subtle and neutral, gray reflects maturity, dignity, stability, and reliability. You keep your composure on the road and are not easily bothered by problems on the freeway. You don’t like attention and prefer to wait to see what happens.

Silver

While this color is also neutral like gray, it’s flashier and attracts looks. If you drive a silver car, you may be confident and look forward to the future, especially regarding technology. This fourth most-popular car color is a practical choice because it hides scratches and dirt easily and also reflects heat for a cooler interior.

Blue

In our area, this is the most popular car color beyond the neutrals and represents reliability, calm, and trust. Because it matches the color of the sea and the sky, it’s seen as peaceful and endless. If you prefer this shade, you’re intelligent, creative, and dislike confrontation because you’re even-tempered.

Darker shades of blue represent authority and confidence in your own driving ability so you do not get into conflicts with other drivers.

Red

The rumors that red cars get ticketed more often and have higher insurance rates are completely false, according to the Auto Club. Year, make, model, miles driven, driving record, and other factors determine insurance rates, not color.

Red calls attention to itself, making it a top choice for warning signs. If you like this color, you’re ambitious, energetic, enjoy life, and have lots of fun. You’re also an extrovert who enjoys being around other people.

 

Other Colors

Yellow and gold show warmth and energy, just like the sun, and if you pick this color, you’re carefree and like to be the life of the party.

Green is natural and understated; you may be seen as consistent, environmentally conscious, and frugal.

Despite its association with Orange County, orange is hardly popular in our area, covering only 0.3 percent of the cars in Southern California.
