Thats how people in the UK can grow tropical plants in their weather by using glass houses. Which is why we have Tinting ;) So if you wanna stay super cool, get a chrome coloured car, and 3 layers of the best tint money can buy ;) Lexus roxs!

In the afternoon, it reflects sunlight so well and at night, it reflects all sorts of lights, which is potentially dangerous. And yes, because it reflects light, occupants inside the car is supposed to feel cooler.
