For decades, plain white was the de facto cheap paint job for just about any car regardless of size and body style. It often took the form of a plain coat of paint with no metallic effect and, in a lot of cases, no clearcoat in order to keep the overall cost of the car as low as possible. Consequently, white is often associated with commercial vehicles and economy cars in many parts of the globe.

In spite of its low-cost vocation, white is a highly neutral color that works well on many cars because it doesn’t distract from the overall lines and it provides a contrast to darker trim pieces.
