Just bought a used car specifically just cause it was a bright orange box. It was priced low because it was a bright orange box with a stick transmission and nobody wanted it.

I love it.

But my last vehicle was a generic silver SUV. Hated it but when I fell upon hard times and had to live in it I was quite happy that I looked like every other car on the road. Best not to draw attention to yourself if you need to sleep in a parking lot or on the side of the road in a residential area.
