    I was listening to NPR recently & they had a segment about this. The guy they had on said it was a mix of corporate savings & market response. Many people just wanted black, white & red cars. So that’s the colors we see the most.

      which i absolutely believe. when i see dealerships selling oddly colored cars they tend to have a 5k discount. my friend got a equinox that was a but strangely colored for less, and in my area a kona had a 5k discount for being hi-vis green. plus i imagine anyone wanting a specific color would just go to a shop for it.

        Oh yeah, getting a wrap for your car is big business nowadays. Seems like the only way to get the color you want.

        …oh god dammit they playin us all the damn time.
