I'm quite the opposite — black is one of my least-liked colors for cars. I'd pay the extra to get another color just so I don't have to deal with black. I was disappointed that Tesla got rid of solid white since I like it better than pearl white.

My hypothesis is that Tesla discontinued solid white because so many cars were ordered with it that getting rid of it, as a base color, causes more buyers to upgrade the color for extra $$. The still have the black so they can show a lower base price on each model, but now more buyers pay extra for the color upgrade.


This. Getting rid of base white is a money grab. As if Teslas aren't expensive enough already.
 
Does anybody have any recent real data on the popularity of the various color choices? Back in 2014, white wasn't all that popular. Of course, a lot could have changed between then and now.
