I would buy a beige car. I spend more time inside the car than looking at the exterior color. However, I would LOVE a lime green, bright orange, school bus yellow, or neon pink car—anything that will allow me to quickly find it in the parking lot amid the sea of grey, beige, white, and black cars.

No

Lots of people do, do because they can't afford a new car with a better color, or because they want that specific car so badly they're ready to accept the color.

There were no colors that we liked for the used car we wanted, so we're stuck with dark red. The blue and black were even worse.

It’s an okay, neutral hue.

I would buy the car if it was in good shape.

At least it isn’t pink, purple or hideous army green.

And at least the paint is in good shape.

Colour doesn't bother me unless it's brown. I just can't do brown. Green would be hard too, but I like a $$deal so I might just have to paint it if I hated it. Definitely no brown interior.

DH hates white- says it feels like a gov't car or rental but we got a used white van a few years back and it was a great deal.

Same here!

That color is actually pretty good. If you really dislike the color put a pinstripe on the car in whatever color you want. That will jazz it up.

If it was a bright ugly color like neon green or school bus yellow, then I would maybe walk away. A boring champagne color? No problem at all.

I think it's a nice color, OP. But I'm not overly picky about color. I do hate black cars.

No, I wouldn't buy it. For the next ten years I'd be stuck with a color I didn't like. If you didn't like the color of your house would you spend $1500 to paint it?

That's actually one of my favorite car colors, so yes, I would definitely buy it!

I think that color is okay. Red or yellow would absolutely be a dealbreaker for me but a neutral color is fine.

I used to care, but I absolutely don't care now. Not like PP with burnt orange. Any color for a used car, and I will only buy a used car now. When i cared, I waited almost six months for my new car, because the trim/color combination didn't exist anywhere.

Just think of it as a "lovely champagne" color instead of the grandma beige that it is.

Yes. Any boring normal color is a plus with a car. You don't want to stand out. And it's a fine color. Really.
