Interesting data folks.

I have a total count of 154. This number includes those who have not responded to this thread but their data was available from prior posts. (i.e. Marlin, Lear, Strawberry, several members of the NY posse, etc..)

The data is as follows:

Color, no surprise here. Titanium is the favorite. But the unexpected surprise was that Carbon turned out to be a close second.



Location. No surprise here either. U.S. participation dominates. What I find strange is the number of people who give no location at all. What's up with that? no one knows who you are anyway.




Model Year. Y2K was a record and if sales continue to soften it will probably remain the biggest production year.




US distribution by state. Cali rules!

Blue - great stuff. Thanks for compiling the stats and producing the pie charts - makes it very easy to grasp.

Cheers -

Silverstone is the fifth most common color?

I feel so...ordinary.

Blue Max, thanks for the pie charts and data analysis, very interesting. Can I make a small point though. Much as they would like their own independence and 4th July holiday (and remember what happened to us Brits the last time that whole issue came up), Scotland is still very much in the UK :-))

True, & I'm supposed to be the geography buff. It must be old age setting-in.

Consider it fixed. We wouldn't want Sean Connery mad at us would we?
