Default My car color

I read an article about the car colors and the countries the are associated with. I bought my 06 GT in Silver. This is what I know so far.

Silver = Germany
Blue = France
Red = Italy
Green = Great Britain

What about black, white, etc...?

Maybe this is what you're talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racing_colors

Germany used bare metal which would be silver, and Denmark used a silver-grey. These colors are no longer "official", though.

What can be considered official today? i wanted my car to be the German color - Silver - because German cars are high quality and the Silver color = Class/Quality. Like Red/Yellow = "Look at me - I need you to see me or I am not worth while - please look at me!!!!!" Silver = I have class (like German cars) I don't need you to look at me because I have superior German color. OK dude .

With all that time spent thinking what others will think when they see the color of your car, when do you find the time to drive it?

Hey thanks. I drive it a lot I do. Every day at least. I am glad you also think silver is the best color next to black. It makes me feel good to drive it. Thank you friend.
