I don't know, perhaps the car is cyan, perhaps it is painted with a 3 stage pearl and most viewed from the same direction. Most people are not very sophisticated in their discerning of color. I cannot trust that the author is certain that the car is blue to start with. Pure statistics are not enough here.

Conspiracies can be entertaining, one's own living "thriller". Some conspiracies are true. Obsessing on them can be negative, one should be honest when assessing probability. They should not affect the psyche at lower than some pretty high threshold.
