I heard somewhere that the most expensive pigment... was red. But a single google showed that purple was *hard* to obtain for a couple of millenia, and reserved for royalty, which made it expensive by nature. And all white cars have titanium oxide in them, which should make them more expensive, but... scale. There are a lot more white cars. This page also shows that red cars only make up 9% of the market.

Just for fact-checking, in regards to a real-life example: Do insurance companies really factor in color when offering policies? It was stated that it was but a sub-bullet, which I may remove due to possible natter, said it doesn't matter what color it is.

It's a controversial idea. I am expecting the answer to be "yes, not admittedly so".

In 3rd edition there were rules for that. It got an extra shot to represent the weapon firing quicker.

I personally think this trope can be classified as chromatic superiority.
