    Hi,
    I was browsing this forum (http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48123) and I thought, is there a philosophical reason why japanese owners tend to choice more white cars, from ferrari to aston, bugatti to lamborghini etc, is this a meaning in simplicity or cleanliness or purity or a simple matter of choice and taste ?

    The official Japanese 'racing' colour is White. Maybe some choose because of this fact ( originally, the NSX Type-R only comes in white, 'Championship White' with the other colours of normal NSX available only later) or because White to them signify purity/cleanliness etc..etc..Yeah, I notice that too, the Japanese love White. The Koreans have a thing for Greys and Blacks..

    white is also the color of death and mourning in many asian cultures as well...
