Rare sight. Is white such a popular colour in S'pore?  😁

Wrong. Grey is the most popular.

The default colour for Cycle and Carriage/Performance Motors usual suspects.

Something I can't wrap my head around but it is the safest colour in sg.

You are spot on. 

According to many SE I have spoken to, Silver and Grey is the most popular colour due to ease of maintenance (you know what they mean). White and Black is the other 2 popular colors, as it suit all type of car models, from compact hatch to luxury cars.

Wah pal, are you the Chief of Army?? Cos Olive Green used to be the choice colour for top gun from Mindef, then they added Silver and Black!  

For me, it is 2 Red (Vivio & Crossroad), 2 Blue (Stream & XC60), 2 Brown (Superb & Sharan) and a Beige (Civic). According to SEs, these are the least popular colors...

Bentley Flying Spur used to be equipped with a 6.0L W12 engine, but with DHL (diesel, hybrid, lesser cc) approach to cut emissions, have downsized to 4.0L V8 since the previous gen. 

For current gen, it goes further down to a 2.9L V6 (with PHEV). Maybe next gen will have 2.0L IL4 with whatever boost...

There are 3 engines, W16, V8 & V6.

If C63 SE Performance use A45s, not surprising to see it.
