I've been watching a lot of Owen movies, and it hit me that I never knew his favorite color. So I watched them all again. I think he likes red, heres why:
1) Digan's marker in Bottle Rocket is red
2) Dignan's face mask is also red
3) Lightning McQueen is red
Does anyone know if he has ever said what his favorite color is? (It could also be blue. Hmmm.)

Neds, you could be right although I'm not sure if the red items you mentioned were entirely in Owen's control. For instance, the red knit caps in The Life Aquatic are red because I think Wes Anderson was channeling Jacques Cousteau who always wore a red knit cap. I don't know if Lightning McQueen's color was Owen's choice although it might have been. I think Lightning McQueen is red because so many race cars are red. Red cars have a reputation (whether deserved or undeserved) for being fast cars. I read somewhere that the cars most likely to be stopped for speeding are red - although that could be an urban legend. I've seen Owen wearing blue, navy blue, green, white, and khaki. I've never seen Owen wear a red shirt or red top before. But he did once have red swim trunks so you might have a point. Whatever, they are good observations, Neds!

Thanks! :-) I also realised that he drove a red go-cart in the Rushmore extras.

Oh, that's a great memory you've got there. I forgot all about the go-karts.

Thank you! :-) I also remembered the ear-protecters Dignan wears in Bottle Rocket when shooting the gun, are red. He also wore a red shirt with a lightning bolt on it on the end of You, Me & Dupree!

To the best of my knowledge, both of Owen's cars are silver; the Porsche and the Prius. Anyone know if Owen has other vehicles?

I don' know if he owns any other cars/trucks. But just saw a pic of Owen with red swimming goggles on! :-)
