I don't think the data exists.

Just based on watching about 900,000 of them go by my desk:

A lot of Dark blue (particularly with steel gray inset) on high end vehicles
A lot of white (lots of utility and base model vehicles)
Not many Hawaiian blue
A lot of tan - particularly base models (I think if you did not specify a color the tan was the standard color. I'm serious).

So - to choose a color that will sell: Dark Blue, which is somewhat elegant and high end. Hawaiian Blue - which would "pop". Not white. Not tan.
