Why Are So Many Subarus White?
I see a lot of white cars, but they’re rarely Subarus.

My Subaru is jasmine green. I'd say most others here are non white

It's kind of hard to tell with some Subarus, what with the pinko politician, "Coexist" and "Hands Off My Body!" bumper stickers festooned all over them.

I just rented a Subaru Forester in Boston and drove up the coast of Maine. It was silver (light gray?), and I noticed a lot of other silver Foresters in parking lots. A good many white as well.

Our 2015 Outback is tungsten and I have not noticed an abundance of white Subies in our neck of the woods.

The State automobile of Oregon is the forest green Scoobie - of any model.

My pal Larry and I were at a stoplight at a busy out-of-town four-way on Highway 26, and counted seventeen - going in both directions - in the minute the lights took to go green...

We were, of course, sitting in my forest green Legacy at the time.

My parent's Outback Onyx is green
MY sister got an OB recently, as well, not sure what color.
Daughter's Girl Scout troop leader has a gold Ascent

Former neighbor had a white Forester, but white definitely isn't the norm around here.

Subies are in all colors in the Yoop. Since everything that scrapes my maroon paint leaves a white scratch (Yooper Pinstripe} buying a white car makes sense!

White SUVs of all brands are ubiquitas around here. I always wanted to use that word. Big Grin

People who live in the Deep South seldom drive black cars because of the heat. I won't buy a white car because most of them are driven by Dorks. White cars are often the last to sell IMHO.

IDK if it's like GMC trucks in that white is the base color. The other colors are extra-cost and IIRC run ~$500-$1,000 more.

The north side of the county where the wealth, and up middle class live, all you see is, black, white, silver and gray. That's it. Don't matter I'd its a Porsche, Mercedes, BMW, Chevy Surburban. They are all those colors. I joke that if you see any colors besides, black,white, silver or gray they ain't from there!

White is the most popular vehicle color nationwide. FWIW.

My neighbors last 2 Subarus are/were not white. But I see a LOT of white cars on the roads in my neck of the woods.

I have noticed, as I am starting the process of shopping for a new ride, a lot of cars of various brands have very limited color selection, without paying more. White or black no additional charge any other color $500-1000 more

Our remaining Subie is rally blue. We don't see a huge number of white ones, pretty much all colors.
