The paint on the black GTI's is lighter thus improving the overall bhp per tonne

The red paint absorbs less heat therefore putting more performance in the engine :D

Red paint fades which also leads to power loss :wink:

Red paint looks faster. Ferraris are red, therefore red is faster

The New Veyron is black because they discovered simply changing the colour improved performance significantly, before & after dyno runs revealed a 200bhp increase from a simple spray job. That's not being funny that is simply a Fact :)

Red Cars look good on show but you need black if you really want to Go! 8)
