So, whilst I was traveling the highways and byways..I saw a car in a color I had never seen before, if it was a custom paint job, I wonder who would order it?? it was not white, or cream, or peach..it was kind of like flesh toned with maybe hints of pink or orange..I am thinking car manufacturers would give it a name like carnation.or taffy or something. It was an odd color and one I didn't find especially attractive. What is the strangest color car you have seen?

@andriaperry @snowy22315 We saw some wonderfully painted trucks in Thailand.

They used to paint scenes on vans.

I'm tired of all the standard colors. I wish we would have prettier colors for our cars. But I have noticed that once a car color goes out of fashion the car forever looks dated. No matter how well it runs, it looks like an old car. That must be the reason as most cars last many years.

I like the ones that are a burnished copper or burnt orange. I had a bike that color one time. I loved it. It was at my parent's house they got rid of it, without even asking me if I wanted it..par for the course! Any other junk I have there hangs around forever!

@snowy22315 Oh, gosh! I usually check with the kids before getting rid of anything big.

Very interesting! What decade was it from do you figure, just out of curiosity?
That's a good question. I can't really think of any too to strange for some reason, I really like this one car from the late 50's that used to be somewhat near my old childhood house (I did not grow up in the 50's though btw) that was like a bright/neon pink, don't think that is strange but it was quite cool.

Maybe the late 90's early 2000's it didn't really look contemporary.

Someone painted their van in the colors of the rainbow. If memory serves, it was also metallic so it shined bright. It's been years since I've seen it. I was a teenager the last time I saw it and my friends and I had talked to the guy. I think he worked at a yogurt place?

There is a car I have seen around that has like literally hundreds of bumper stickers and decals pasted on it..it is a real sight..but I think the car color underneath is normal.

@snowy22315 I think every state has a car that has a lot of bumperstickers on it. I don't know that I've seen one with so many that you can't tell the paint job though.,

Some of the older corvettes were a lime green, but I liked that color.

@snowy22315 It was not a lime green, it was lighter, a bad shade of green.

I am not sure if it was cool, or just odd looking. It was kind of indescribable.

Sounds rather different. I can't think of a color like that.
