red color is noticed more by people its a blood color and triggers our ancient instincts .red is a sportscar color and the most popular and poll was done proveing that cops pull over more red cars than any other color so youll talk to cops moore often in red car . dose it make car faster lol. no has nothing to do with cars speed but might make you want to show off a little more and maybe push peddle a little too far and you may feel it runs faster but trust me same car with same motor in grey blue or black will run same . oh yes black is also a pull me over color . color has an effect of power in our minds and gives us sense of haveing the better car sometimes but its all in our heads but dosent matter as long as you enjoy the color .

If you think so then so be it but my green car is probally faster but if I painted it red it would probably slow it down as there would be the extra weight of the addition paint so pottentially answer is no, but if you removed all my cars bodypanels and repalced with red carbon fibre panel then it would be faster. Who cares, I've lost the will to live thinking upon such a deep philosopical question of such national importance

Nope, they're technically not faster, but because of the colour red, they tend to be driven more aggressively by the driver. This just creates the assumption that red cars are faster. Red is just the stimulus that makes us aggressive (or hungry)

Red cars are slower because the drivers spend more time waiting for tickets to be written. They don't go any faster (that, of course, depends on the engine and transmission, not the color) but they ARE "cop magnets".

Never heard that one. Red cars are in more accidents than any other color.
