Why isn't Liquid Platinum more popular?

Why is it that Liquid Platinum 2011+ G37's (especially sport models) don't seem to be very popular or as common as other darker gray colors? I think the color is looks great. Am I missing something or is it just a coincidence I haven't seen them?

There are a few around, but obsidian black is probably the most popular color.

Liquid platinum is a beautiful color. I remember before I bought my G, I saw a LP G drive through the intersection. ANd I remember thinking how sexy it was.

I have a 2013 Sport sedan that's Liquid platinum. Once I get some new wheels in the next few months, then I'll share some pics.

I see plenty of LP Gs. One of the most common colors and one of the few that has been around since the G35 days.

It's one of the few colors where the chrome factory trim is somewhat complementary. Even the beret across the back doesn't look bad on LP. Coming from a TB 1st gen, its ability to camouflage dirt/dust is almost annoying at times (i.e. it's been a week, I want to wash my car, yet it still looks clean).

In the used car sales world it's called "No sale silver" which is surprising because everyone offers silver cars and there is like a gazillion silver Camry's out there. I know someone with thier auction buyers license and that's the term they use for silver cars.

Because PG is a better color. But seriously I see tons of LP in and around NYC with PG being the only color I see more.
