Battleship Grey Gloss painted cars everywhere

[Hey-O]

I've always hated white.

I strongly disagree also! It's not the color, it's what it's on. I think this white streak will pull tears from a dry eye, it did mine. Tuned 735 HP, 6 speed.

White to me looks like a rental car or construction truck....

White is a great color when it's 123°f in the shade. (I've seen it.)

Extra cost in 67. Better looking than any new grey car.

Like many of you, I also don't like the lack of colors available on new cars. The number of colors you could order my 1970 in far outweighs the number of colors available now. Want green? Yellow? Brown? Burnt Orange or orange? Forget about it!

When I got my RAM in 2020 I wanted something different than everything else. There was a red available, but I decided to go with a two tone brown and white. I liked that the brown was integrated into the wheels. But it still is a pretty subdued vehicle...

 

[Coelacanth]

I strongly disagree.

Nice car, but I'll take that in blue with the white Shelby stripes.

Hell, I'll take it in green with pink stripes!

I wouldn’t have had a white car for years but it’s kind of grown on me. It just has to be polished up good. Even the old off-white, whites can look pretty presentable (IMO).

Either way, bring your Depend. A hard nail at 50 mph and you'll fill them. White is my business color. bought it, used it, sold it.

I've seen new rams in orange and what-looks-like sublime. I like em both.... but then I've got a baby **** brown rr (my dad's description, but he was color blind, really butterscotch).

That's a great looking truck, good choice!!

I hate the new "grey primer" vehicles. I have never been a fan of white either. However, I was able to get a hell of a deal on my CTD dually. On pick up trucks and vans white just looks so commercial. I almost feel like I am driving a company delivery truck. Lol. The only good thing about white. It almost never look dirty....

For all the grey haters.
Look in the mirror at your heads!
In yer face! Haha

That looks like a charcoal grey metallic which looks great, not like the new Grey's everyone is discussing on the newer cars.

When I got my Ram in 2020, there were no interesting color choices available, at least for some of the models I was interested in. As a matter of fact, the only trim level that had two tone paint was the Longhorn - and that two tone was brown (like on mine) with other colors. I didn't like the combination for other colors so it became white.

For the record, I am not a gray or silver hater at all. What I dislike is that every car nowadays looks so much the same. If all cars were Limelight or orange I would be complaining about that! For me, diversity in color choices is key. That's what makes cars interesting.

Not impressed with the gloss gray primer everybody seems to like nowadays. VERY impressed with your beautiful gray rr!

Heres something you will really hate. I saw that color on a Mustang called Eleanor- from a movie. Took me a few weeks to find a good formula for it.

Looks similar to what I had put on my Cortina, but mine was a stock One Day P&B color. (No sense putting a $5000 paint job on a $1000 race car, less motor trans and center)
And I don't give a darn WHERE good paint color comes from, if it's a good color!

Orange, electric blue and lime are not my favorites on a truck. That's a pretty big billboard in your face going down the road. Your truck screams out class to me. I'm not a fan of my car in white. You see what color I bought. It's not for sale.

Hey???? what's wrong with white??

Mind you, I was gonna paint it the same color as my previous Road runner.
