No, you're projecting "boring" onto it. That's how you feel about what they're buying, not how they feel.

I stand by my original point that it's tasteful. Classic shades of white, gray, silver, and black are in good taste, which is why people buy them. The buyers aren't saying "I want a boring color", they're saying "I want a tasteful shade".

Maybe we can agree that it's tastefully boring

At least it's not beige, which would only be boring

Ugh, if the 1990's are calling, tell them I'm not home!

If you get a call from the 1990's tell Honda to bring back cypress green pearl

Meanwhile at Mazda, I can see "zircon sand" working for the CX-50, but I'm skeptical on the Miata https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a41995585/2023-mazda-miata...

Unless it's such a weird choice that it somehow transcends boringness?

Bach's fugues are tasteful, french cuisine is good taste. White and grey cars are just boring, the definition of good taste for the unimaginative petite bourgeoisie, the hallmark of conformity and middle-class sensitivity.

I have a grey car, but I am fully aware this is the case just because I am a terminally boring middle-class denizen, mass-produced, and absolutely non-remarkable for history.
