Saw my first auto with a chameleon paint job

Sadly, no photo. Have these been available for a while. Are they more popular in certain cities?

If it flips color--it is likely a color vinyl wrap.

Usually It's this

Most of the ones I see are wrap. Cheaper and easy to change.

I gave my old Motobecane racing bike (*) to a coworker's son, and he refurbished it and painted it with that sort of paint. It looked really cool. He is still riding that bike... Even knowing that its much older than he is.

(*) bought that bad boy in DInard, France the day that the Tour blew through town. It was the almost the same model Eddy Merckx was riding (and bleeding on) when he went through town and ultimately won the triple crown. It was an amazing bike. Rode it all over Brittany, on rides with my first girlfriend, and then carried it home to Missouri. Ah... my first awesome bike, my first love, my summer en France. Pretty awesome for newly teenaged me.

While I have no idea what a chameleon paint job looks like, I've seen a few ChromaFlair-type painted vehicles.

An interesting look, but not one I'd want on any vehicle of mine.

I’m in love with any kind of color shifting anything. It turns my head. I put that wrap on my shopping list while I think about what I could apply the skin to… no, not my truck, although I hate the color. Not made of money!

Since many major auto manufacturers think there's only a few crayons in the box, I am very happy to see wrapping as an alternative. I like bolder colors on vehicles.

(And if you ever come to Central AR -- and Carnos Jax may have noticed as well -- there is an overabundance of white vehicles here.)

About 10 years ago, Copper was a pretty pretty popular option. I'm thinking about getting that wrapped on my grey Mazda.

I like the 30s, 40s, and 50s when pastels were an option.

From time to time I'd a vintage car in a yellow or green that looked great.

Even in the 70s, maybe 80s, there were a lot more crayons in the box then now.

I'm guessing the abundance of white vehicles in AZ is to reflect sunlight?

Some cars, to my eye, look better in certain colors than others.

I wouldn't say no to a white 2023 'Vette.

A guy I knew who was a manager for a Miracle Auto paint shop said dealers ordered a lot of light colored vehicles because they could be repainted a darker color.

Seemed a little unethical to me to sell a repaint as new, but that was the car bizz.

I read somewhere that car reviewers usually get a grey or silver vehicle to review.

There was no reason given, as I recall, only that they wished they could get a splash of color once in awhile.
