Why I bet your car has an extra 200 Lb's of photons stuck to it (at least if it's an '04).
You can't argue with SCIENCE!
Light Platinum V's are faster.

hmmm.. maybe true ....
but... silver is not faster than black...
1. first off... silver hides more dirt where as black shows everything...
so black car owner clean our cars more often.... thus lightening our vehicles!!!
2. silver is metallic right?! so all that "metal flake" in the paint adds an easy access of weight to your paint!!!
3. with all the metal in the metallic paint all anyone has to do is hold a magnet behind you... slow you down...
4. black is just a "sleeker" color... looks and cuts like glass!!!

this is probably my worst post but... its early so I am allowed!!
