Does anybody know where to find the sales volume for the 8th generation Maxima by car color?

This is 100% serious - you'd probably have to go to a paint supplier.

Also you could probably use touch-up paint sales as a proxy, albeit unreliable.

My guess is that the "traditional" colors - black, white, silver - are the most popular. I've seen a handful of copper (my color), red, blue, etc. Actually blue has been a bigger seller than I thought, even on the SR.

Here is the overall volume: http://www.goodcarbadcar.net/2011/01...s-figures.html

Start with these percentages, and then move them around (i.e. increase blue, red, brown and reduce green and possibly silver and grey since these are less popular in 8th-gen Maxima sales IMHO):

Color North America
PPG DP (different suppliers)
White 21% 24%
Silver 16% 16%
Black 19% 19%
Grey 16% 15%
Blue 8% 7%
Red 10% 10%
Brown 7% 5%
Green 3% 2%
Others --- 2%
