I wasn't suggesting that you aren't a car guy.

I was saying that the clear headlights, clear parking lights, clear tailights, etc. thing is completely lost on people who aren't enthusiasts and appreciated by
MOST people who are enthusiasts. I shouldn't have been so general in my earlier statement.

The preference of MOST people who are enthusiasts, including designers apparently, of an amber free environment seems to have encouraged
the manufacturers of sports cars to find other ways to conform with DOT
regualtions requiring an orange blinking light, parking light, etc.
and most have completely phased amber out of the exterior light housing.

deambering was also big when I had my Miata so its something that bothers people across different brands. I tend to agree that a neutral color has different effect than a more visible color like bright orange.
