Yea, esp in Japan, you see a lot of white exotics (and sports cars in general) for some reason? I dont know the origin of this, but i do know that many 'race' cars over there were white back in the day, so perhaps it paying tribute to the motorsports heritage of the cars???

White has - and i think always will be - the most Pure JDM color....Type R's, Supra's, Skylines, RX7's, etc always seem to show in white - and of course the exotics in white always seem to be from Japan (or asia)...

I am curious about the REAL answer to this question - ANYONE?

First thing I thought too when I saw the pics.

I can't think of any exotic that looks horrible in white. Either black or white is the way to go IMO. Then red and yellow.

In the middle east, its due to the heat.
Colored cars are always dusty there.
white reflects light and heat and dark colors absorb them. A white car will require less air conditioning compared to a darker car.
