I don't think any OEM colour affects value for most people. If someone has their heart set on Clean White and Chappy Red and they live in a region where those colours were not well represented that person may pay a premium to get what they want, but the bodywork would have to be flawless. It's just paint and it isn't a complicated task to change colours if the bodywork needs repairs anyway.
