White has proven this year to be the most fashionable color for new automobiles in the North American car markets according to DuPont Automotive's "Global color popularity report."

Nearly 20% of all new cars sold on the North American continent are white. Since the year 2000, the most popular color had been silver (I guess the tech-flavor is old).

Black is also gaining fast in popularity and to a lesser extent so are red and blue.

Conversely, green and brown were the most and second to most unpopular colors, respectively.
