What color is your parachute car?

While pondering the thirty-one miles per gallon my ten year old Honda Civic still gets on 95% city driving, I ran across an article on what your car color may say about you.

The article is a bit confusing, as it both mentions research that shows there is a correlation between car color and driving habits (and by extension, one would think, your personality) and goes on to say there probably isn't a real link between color choice and what you are like. It says there is no evidence to support claims that color is representative of the driver's psyche, but concludes with a list of colors and related personality traits.

Eh - who needs real research to have a little fun? Following is the list of car colors and associated traits. What does your color choice say about you?

Silver: You are calm, cool, elegant, futuristic and possibly detached

White: You are fastidious, enjoy a simple life, have a strong attention to detail and are possibly a perfectionist

Green: You are trustworthy, traditional and balanced, but can also be lively and occasionally hysterical

Brown/Beige: You are practical, reliable, down-to-earth and pragmatic.

Yellow: You are upbeat, intelligent and young at heart

Grey: You are calm, sober and very career-driven

Blue: You are confident, quiet and dependable

Red: You are energetic, dynamic and have a lust for life

Pink: You are gentle, loving and caring

Black: You are conservative, empowered, elegant and professional

Purple: You are creative, unafraid of stepping outside of the norm and happy to be seen as unique

I must be getting older - I've gone from red to black, and have been seriously thinking about beige for a small SUV sometime in the next two years. It's worth noting that car colors, like decorating colors, go through cycles. Certain manufacturers have traditional colors as well.
