When's the last time you saw a car other than red, black, blue, gray, or white on the road?

Like, what happened to all the pinks, purples, oranges, yellows, and greens I remember from the 90s?

Most car dealerships only stock black, white, silver or grey.

I walked into our showroom the other day and it was very reminiscent of Henry Fords “any colour, as long as it’s black”. There were also two silver cars and one dark blue car hidden in the back, as if it was ashamed of itself.

I drive a tan car. My niece drives a mint green car. There are two jungle green Zeekr’s in our street but every single other car is monochrome.
