Porsche colours are not subjective, this is a piece of well researched work that categorised colours, the work was completed by Durham University to a Gold Double Blind Standard.
The headlines are summarised below but where first published in the Lancet, Nature Magazine and Colour Chart Salesman Gazette in 2014.
Enjoy the list:-

White - Usually a female colour but popular among Male Footballers and younger men who work in IT ( but not full time employees )

Yellow - Gender neutral in the main, often non professionals who work in Pornography Industry or Telesales

Black - One of the strong male trait colours, Accountants with a secret tattoo and Engineers in their 50's

Silver - Equally spread across the demography, men usually wear red socks and sport braces, women have beards and also like Mercedes SL's. Very popular but not common

Guards Red - Almost exclusively owned by well respected males who are adored by women and men alike, usually business owners who spend their money on good causes when not fighting injustice. Typical owners are Virgos with Scorpio rising.

Sorry I couldn't find the full article, but I hope you found this extract interesting

Correct I bought a Guards Red Turbo but that was recently and this research is from 2014.... :angel:
 
OK so what about Macademia. What does this say about me. Be gentle people
:wink:
 
That you study nuts. Unless you meant macadamia.
 
Seems like a pretty accurate summary to me. :thumbs:
 
The colour blue (16%) tends to be chosen because it is calming, provides logic, clarity and soothes the mind, says Angela.
"If you buy blue then you are perhaps unconsciously craving something sensible in your life, and you're more likely to be a more cautious driver," she adds.

That means I am a Sensible, logical ,clear thinking slow driver mmmmmm

:floor: :floor: Err no. It actually means all academics sit around eating lentils and making $hit up without any need to make sense....

However I am looking forward to changing careers as I've never worked in a call center...

"If you drive a grey car perhaps you are saving money." says Angela.......

I think my wife might disagree and, definitely not according to my 911 maintenance log. :hand:
