Answer 2

OK, here we go again...some one did a study many years ago on what color cars got involved in the most and which in the least accidents. Red cars get involved in the most accidents, yellow in the least which is why school buses are yellow. It's all about visibility, yellow is the easiest color to see. Also: when the golden gate bridge was being painted (it's actually red) the accident rate among the workers went way up and the psychologists determined it was the red paint because red is an irritating color to many people and when tempers flare accidents happen. Since I read that article, I have never owned a red car. I usually buy blue because I can't find the model I want in yellow most of the time. My Mustang is silver which is a bad color also because it's hard to see in bad weather and people tend to run in to things they can't see.

Black gets dirty easy and soaks up heat from the sun.
Red isn't a good choice either as discussed earlier so that leaves white or blue...flip a coin.

Answer 3

I've always had black on all my cars, even my last Mustang, and as much as I love the color black, it definately requires some work...the white "dust" always shows up, even if it's garage kept.

I've seen white, and it's equally as dirty, just with the darker dust/grime, definately have to scrub.

I would stay away from Red because the color itself won't last you many years. Red pigment in nature always fades faster than most other colors. Toyota, Mazda for years have had terrible red paintjobs which might last them 5 years, IF kept decently, and that's if your lucky.

Blue is workable, Ford does make some nice blues like Wedgewood blue.

If you want a color that shows dirty the least, Silver would be the color. It sort of hides the black and white dust quite well. It also happens to be the #1 color of choice for consumers, so maybe you don't wish to have a color everyone else has.

Ford also makes a Mineral Grey which is quite attractive, and does hide the dirt/grime quite well.

Just my take...

BTW, just a tidbit of info I read once... the longest running and most durable paint job in the automotive industry is Ford's "Oxford White"...which dates back quite some decades and continious to be used because of how reliable and long lasting it is.

Hope this helps...:-)

Answer 4

I have a torch red mustang. If your looking to turn heads, that color will do it and it looks great when clean and shiny! But others are right...it will take a lot of care to keep up the red from fading.

Answer 5

If u choose white get the windows tinted...otherwise very dull. I like Blue............A Med Metallic Blue is sweet. You can't go wrong with red ..it's a sports car. Black is nice but a ***** to keep clean, unless you like hanging out at the car wash.

Blessings to u,

Daniel
