Yep, I recently bought a black polo shirt from Shirt-A-Day to match my black XF. I bought a white polo to match my white Kia Amanti.

That's funny.

When I first got my aero blue SRT, I would find myself picking out a blue shirt w/black pants or vice versa to wear in the morning. It gave me a bit of a gigle when I ralized what I was doing.

Maybe it is because you bought the car color you like and you are buying cloths in the color you like. The cloths may happen to be your favorite color... which also happens to be the color of your car.

A Freud thing maybe?

So many things to say so little time but to be quick they better be slid in pumps When you get out otherwise it could be a comedy. I would sit back and watch (if you were a female)

Ha ha. On the mornings that I wear a black shirt to school with my aviator shades, I can't help but think how nicely they'll complement the black SRT.

All the time. It's addicting.Every time I buy an accessory or a mod, I say to myself, this is the last mod. I just can't stop.

I keep buying hats and shirts to match my car's custom interior.

This is a new one for me. I have never coordinated my attire with my car, or even thought about it.

It happens to me all the time.

I bought an intake that matches my engine cover perfectly. Then intake manifolds to match the cold air intake. And the pulley I bought matches the other stainless steel perfectly!

Well, I have an oyster gold XFire. Now, I'm not planning on wearing something that'll make me look like a pimp from the 70s... :-)
