I took our 2009 Honda Fit yesterday to the Los Angeles Auto Show.
As you know, ours is a copper-tinged orange.
As I pulled into the LA Convention Center parking lot, another Fit followed me in. It was orange.
And at my school parking garage, I usually see the same Fit there. It's orange.
I've even driven by some orange Fits in Santa Monica, expecting to see one of my colleagues in our long-term car, only to find a complete stranger driving it.
What -- you boosted our test car?
Nope, it's just that in my experience, nearly every Fit I see is orange.
As a matter of fact, earlier this year Edmunds had two of them at the same time -- both orange, of course.

They say if you torch a Toyota minivan, its color changes to Burnt Sienna.

I only see all orange ones two. Maybe it's a near the East or West coast thing

I like that burnt orange color......not sure if I would tire of it over the years however.

I tend to see that Purple/Amethyst Color the most.

Mine's orange...and so was the one that almost creamed me one day when it was merging onto 295 while performing a jersey slide.

The woman I work with has an orange one as well - only one I know.

Mine's orange (Volunteer Orange here in SEC country). I would've preferred red, blue or that wonderful blackberry color, but this was the last five-speed '09 Sport in Georgia.

@vt8919,
"They say if you torch a Toyota minivan, its color changes to Burnt Sienna."
I laughed at this. Despite your left-lane-hog post from awhile back.

Well, Edmunds is located in "Orange County," no? ;)

@rsholland: No, it's LA County. But some of us live in OC.

That's because orange is the best color. Alhough the deep purple is pretty cool too.
