Actually I'd say that a gold car indicates you have no taste.

"You are earthy and don't engage in "showboating.'"

I don't know about you guys, but in that beast, it'd be all showboating, all the time.

That stuff about people who drive black cars being control freaks is crazy.

If I was (when I am) in charge of this board I will delete posts like this...

My bad everyone. Sorry to waste your time (all 60 seconds of it).

Didn't say I liked it or agreed - just involved with cars.

I like how it says gold represents wealth and pride...but then has a picture of a gold Ford Focus.

Not a bad car...but nothing that really shouts wealth or pride.

"Green
Green is the color of nature. The person who chooses a green car is conscientious. They tend to be the go-to person in tense situations because they know how to keep their emotions in balance. "

Yea I bet the guy in the green Lambo I saw yesterday in Boston is exactly like that.

Dumb article.

Several decades ago I heard the following:

Black car: owners like to hide in their cars, they are more to themselves, introverted.

Yellow car: found a lot on college campus, usually a sign of intellect.

Green car: sign of stress.

Blue car: calm

White car: confident

Red car: flashy, likes to drive fast.

These assumptions are all anecdotal generalizations.
