So, with this logic, am I driving the ANTI-CURSE vehicle because it is black? I can enjoy accident free driving as long as you all believe in the white curse. Awesome yeaaa.

A curse? No.

I was rear ended when I had my white 95 SSE. However, given the situation I was in, I would have been hit regardless of the color of my car.

I've never had a white bonnie, so I guess the curse doesn't really apply to me, however I have had 3 white cars, none of which was I in any type of accident at all in. I came close quite a few times, like when my Trans Am randomly decided to do 2 doughnuts in the middle of the freeway at 80mph when it was only 2 lanes wide with concrete walls on either side and 2 semis behind me.....im not sure how i didn't hit anything or how I ended up facing the right direction... It was like 85 degrees out, dry, and sunny....i don't get it.

I have seen about 9 billion cases of it on here, but i wouldn't say I'm a believer. Just that white is a very popular color so it seems like it happens to white cars more.

The white curse is true and a proven fact in only one way. White cars will, this is scientifically proven, get shat on by birds more than any other color car. Why? White is a territorial color for birds and if they see something white they go doo doo on it. I can attest to this fact that my car will come home from work on any given day with at least 20 new piles on it.
