I remember seeing a commercial for the new Boxster a few years ago and it was silver with red interior. Just a beautiful combination. If I weren't dead set on getting a sports car in a "loud" color that would be my choice.
I believe silver has dropped a bit in popularity while white has taken risen in popularity.

Yeah...I'm guilty of owning way too many silver and black cars in my history. My current weekend car (Corvette) is silver metallic with the top and "halo' painted black. I think it looks okay, but lighting really makes a difference when you can see the "flake" in the paint.
When I needed another "daily", I went white as I had never had one. But I'm a boring person...never been much into loud colors.
