If you wear the Berlina shirt in an inferior color car you'll be faster... just a thought.
Here are the hard facts on the correlation between car color and speed. This is conclusive evidence as a result of thousands of hours of rigorous testing: GPW and BB are the two fastest color s2000's because they can avoid the phenomenon known as "optical friction" (what? it's a real thing....)
GPW is faster when traveling away from the sun because it is reflecting all of the colors of the spectrum, hence avoiding the "optical friction" that it would encounter when traveling toward the sun. In essence, the car is actually being "pushed" from behind by photons of light.
BB is faster when traveling toward the sun because black absorbs all colors of the spectrum, so it is actually being pulled toward the sun by photon energy (simultaneously avoiding any "optical friction")

BTW: this is a complete load of BS.
Sooo.. GPW would only be faster going away from the sun? If it is heading in the other direction it would be the slowest due to the optical friction? Dang.. that would sux big time!
