Yeah, I know what color his car is. And now everyone knows I don't like it. But I hate silver too (any variant), and that pisses off far more people than the five owners of the only Jade Green boxsters to ever be ordered.

However, I dislike silver for a different reason... it's not a pansy color, it's just terribly overused on every friggin' car model on the road, Porsche included. I'm tired of seeing it and refuse to have it on any car I drive. I'm sure everyone said this about black in the Model T days, and that's all I will drive today. So what comes around goes around I guess.

I just don't like trendy colors like speed yellow, bright green, pink, neon blue, etc. They are hard on my eyes and resale value is always low... not to mention it takes far longer to sell these color cars when they do go up for sale.
