I know I'm very late making this comment, but about boring NB colors:
Yes, the boomer factor played a large part, no arguing that. It is the entire reason the "special editions" were anything but. Still, the other thing to consider is that NOBODY made cars in interesting colors for most of the last decade. Everyone had 4-6 shades of black/white/silver and a muted red or muted blue, and that was it. (Heh, except Scion. Though how their apparently 19-year-old target demographic can afford a brand new car in this economy is a great mystery.)
