Trust me, i'm an advocate of function over form. But if you're not going to sacrifice any functionality or spend more money, why not choose based on looks? To 99% of people, aesthetics matter in some degree. If you're going to buy a car, can you absolutely say, with all other things being equal, that you do not care about the color you're getting?
Actually yes, I really don't care about the color of my car as it is simply a tool I use for transport. To me it's no different than any other tool; it's there to serve a purpose and it should do it well.
