“Better” is a highly relative term.

Mostly, I agree. However, a counterpoint:

One car that absolutely terrible in white.

You may think you are right, but you are not right.

False. White makes everything look like a rental or work truck

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

You obviously haven’t experienced the poor decision making that is a stock white NA Miata. Yuck

I highly disagree. Everything should come as no shade, just color

I think you confused the word “all” with the word “no”

I don’t even like the color red, and even I can say it’s much better on a Ferrari.

I have a thing for the van versions of the FIAT Seicento and Cinquecento because they came in white with silver steelies and black bumpers...for some reason I love that combo, but that combo was only ever was found on cargo versions!

I agree that The LFA, most lambos, high end luxury cars, and stuff like that look Amazing in white I would always spec my dream cars in white but beaters always look awful and down market cars look like rentals

Any car that has black plastic trim/cladding, etc. looks much worse in white than any other color - the pic you included is a perfect example of that.

Some cars look decent in white, white is never the best color for a car.

This is subjective. You cant measure how much better something looks, therefore your wrong.

There is no argument. White sucks on any vehicle.

I can and I will. The only color worse than white is off-white.

Yep, as an owner of 2 of them (not white), I think I’m qualified to say that it’s objectively worsened in white.

You have a point. White shows off all the black parts better. Vents, trim, windows. People who buy black cars are idiots who don’t appreciate design and want to believe they’re batman

Well now you’re taking it overboard. Not all people who buy black cars are like that. My mom has a black Mercedes ML350, she just bought it that way because she says it’s the second best color for a car and a white ML was too expensive
