GoldPart of the yellow family of car colors, gold can also make resale a challenge, and regular upkeep is required to keep it shimmering. But for a car that you can't miss, it's hard to beat a gold finish. Currently sitting in the 10th position of most popular car colors in America with 0.1% of the U.S. market share, gold follows yellow with a massive 20-year decline in overall popularity.It's a similar story globally, where gold only accounts for 2% of the market share. But if you're going to go for the, ahem, gold, why not go with an icon like the Porsche 911? The German automaker is known for offering a breathtaking array of paint choices, including one-off custom colors for serious money. But for just $14,190, you can coat your new 911 in the striking shade of Nordic Gold Metallic.Based on the Gold Metallic finish Porsche featured in the early 1970s, it is also said to parallel the brass alloy shimmer found on 10-, 20-, and 50-cent Euro pieces. Eagle-eyed Porschephiles may recognize Nordic Gold as the communication color Porsche used on official press photos of the 997 generation 911 Targa 4S. Described as warm and shiny with yellow, orange, and red shades that give it the look of pure gold, we can't think of a better choice for the 911.
