So, you're saying a yellow Pantera looks as good as a red one, as long as
you drink enough alcohol.

The other question is, have there been any studies done on the correlation
between alcohol consumption and ability to discern certain light spectrums .
. .   There could be a perception of color shift as the night wears into the
wee hours and desperation rises . . .

>> I think we all know that this should be the which color is best question to
rest...did you see the advertisements for all four years by any chance????

I agree.  The best color is obviously red.

 

Think about it.  Which chick is the best looking in the bar?  The tall
skinny blonde with big boobs or the other 50 painted yellow?

Based on my numbers, it appears that 26.1% of all US Panteras were Yellow.
I think we all know that this should be the which color is best question to
rest...did you see the advertisements for all four years by any chance????
