Bravo!!! Nice Job... I was wondering the same thing myself & does make the poll even more interesting... Maybe we could redo the poll & rate our choices 1-12 in order to derive to the conclusion of which color is the best... This way people would be forced to choose more something other than the Kat they bought.... Just a thought...

I got to ask you, the graphics on that graph look real familiar, what program did you use to generate it? Given your profession, I think I can guess...

PO2001 -- I used Excel, pasted it in PowerPoint, and saved it as a .jpg file.

Also, inasmuch as folks seemed to like Candy Red and Woodward more than what produced, just the opposite occurs for Black. Seems like a lot of Black owners didn't vote for their own color (CJ -- you haven't logged in enough as a guest and voted for Black!)

Also the Yellow and the Black-tie more than what were produced too. Yellow also took the overall percentage win.
Yellow was 5.5% over it's closest competitor.

YELLOW ROCKS!!!!!!!!

Good analysis and I think you may be correct about future collectibles. The Black Tie could be a sleeper. While it never went over great, I don't think anyone finds it offensive and with the limited number, it too should hold value pretty good. Top three collectibles - Woodward, Candy, Black Tie (obviously not including HV Blue)

I disagree (as a previous owner of BT#5). There still a number of BT's out there (new at dealers) who are severly discounting them. Discounting more so then the yellow's. Also, try trading one it. You'll find it is worth no more (and possibly less) then any other color.
While there were alot less BT's produced then yellow, value will have to do with availability. If everyone with a BT is trying to sell it but, everyone with a yellow wants to hang onto it, the yellow could be worth more (ie. not as many for sale).
IMO, the reason bright colors like yellow are so popular is that this is a car to be noticed in and cries for a color that screams back at you. I suspect that if DC had built them in shocking green, numbers of high voltage blue, or other electric colors, they might have sold another 11,000.
