"Silver really shapes cars the best," says Ron Will, manager of product planning and design for Subaru of America, Inc. "With dark colors, it's difficult to see the shape. Whites don't do it. Solids don't do it. You need metallic or pearlescent in a lighter color. That's why I think silver works the best."
It's funny the Subaru guy feels that way.....I think that the Legacy GT wagon, in silver, is one of the hottest looking cars out there. And I'm not even a Subaru fan!
