In Russia, a non-standard body color can reduce the cost of a car in the secondary market and increase its sale time. This was reported to Gazeta.Ru on June 15 at the Avtodom dealership.
“Gold, brown, purple and other body colors can reduce the cost in the used car market and increase the sale time. Orange, blue, green, red, gray, beige, pink also reduce the chances of a quick and profitable sale, ”said a representative of the center.
It is noted that yellow cars are 20% cheaper because there is a possibility that they were involved in the taxi business. The same goes for white cars.
