IDOTH?

Hank green had a good video about this: https://youtu.be/KchX52bIZSg

Totally understand what you're saying but they stopped making that Focus RS in 2018 so, is that still a "new trend" example?

You just happened to pick a car I own (in black) and it's not trending in 2026

Nardo Gray is a good color, and basically every car's body lines are easily defined in the color. Its pretty hard to find a car that looks bad in Nardo Gray.

It originally was a special order color on the 2013 Audi RS7, and ever since has had various other manufacturers offering similar colors. It's a bit like Grabber Blue, but since it is gray it has a little wider appeal.

I actually like that particular shade. It’s the dull gray color that’s a tad darker that’s boring and generic.

I kinda like it, specially in the focus.

Putty ass looking wips

I love them haha

Renault is going against that at least for some of their new car models. Take the R5, or the new Twingo for example. At least in Austria the default colour that don't cost extra are bright green and yellow.

I had a cement gray Scion TC it was the best, never looked too dirty and looked great clean.

For a tool whose purpose is utility gray makes sense, but car people want to be noticed.

Not everyone has to be an Einstein, but making your car the same color as the road is the next level of stupid.

Oh I hate this dumb color so much.

It's taken me this long to find out what these colours are. I wanted to know because they remind me of 1960s & 1970s office furniture, like filing cabinets. And I mean that in a good way. I love these colours!

Is it easier to get these cars resprayed if you get a scrape? I have a car that is black but has a lot of multicoloured flake in the paint, I just know when I get the bumper touched up it will be so obvious.

i like that people are getting these. they make my dark gray really pop

My car is dark metallic grey. Not really my favourite, but you basically are limited to any shade of grey on the used car market. I looked it up, and a comparable car in blue would have cost me 5000 more. Not something I shell out just for the colour.

Destroyer grey from dodge was this for a while, though I prefer Chronos Grey from audi.

I wonder if AI was used to predict color demand via social media and all it saw was people who were too poor to afford primer and paint in one-go and had to drive around grey…. And it thought that was cool because of the updoots.

There’s a line from Pulp - Common People that I’ve always enjoyed. It was written about the rich, but I think AI often has the detached reality that rich people do:

'Cause everybody hates a tourist. Especially one who, who thinks it's all such a laugh. Yeah, and the chip stains and grease will come out in the bath.
