I always take Lyft over Uber because they actually TELL YOU THE COLOR OF THE CAR on the app. Uber not showing you the color of the drivers car is one of the weirdest UI decisions I can ever remember.

Yeah, that's one thing Lyft definitely go right. For the life of me, I can't understand why Uber doesn't do that as well.
It might stem from Uber's roots, since all of the Uber Black cars are by definition black. It is pretty annoying when using their billions of other offerings -- not everyone can spot a particular Honda Civic from two blocks away.
Interesting, I've used it a bunch over the years and never encountered a non-black car. Which is actually kind of silly when you think about it -- a silver Mercedes is just as classy as a black one, if that's what you're concerned with (I'm actually more interested in getting a livery driver who knows what they're doing).
Well, that's weird: I got into an argument with my Uber driver at SFO last week because the app said his car was gray and I didn't notice it waiting there because to me it looked black.
Maybe it's supported for different grades of service?
