Is a neutral-colored car better for car insurance?
I used to have a silver Honda. I'm considering trading it in for a snazzier color. Will this raise my insurance rates?

“While trading in your vehicle for a new or more expensive model can affect your
car insurance
rates, the color will not be the determining factor. Your vehicle’s make, model, and year will determine your car insurance rates. A newer vehicle will always cost more to insure than an older one based on its actual cash value. Insurance companies will charge higher premiums for a vehicle that costs them more to replace if damaged.
Since you’d like to trade your vehicle in, shop around for car insurance before doing so. By shopping around, you can see what the cost to insure your new car will be.
