Black and always black, so deep you can walk into it

Arrest me red, is a no no, along with ticket me yellow.

black hides it speed.

Re: Hmm, what colorrrr..

I own a Altima 3.5 liter coupe painted Super Black. When it's clean, it's strikingly elegant--not so much when it's dirty/dusty and that seems to happen with ease. I probably won't purchase another black car. That said, to each his own.

Red, of course. ALL Camaros are red, ones that are not are mistakes!
