Grew Purple Sun last year. Germination was rubbish but the carrots were nice. I preferred them to orange carrots, they have an extra depth of flavour, perhaps a bit beetrooty.

Interesting. Smile

Do they keep there colour when they are cooked? Huh

The white and yellow ones do, I think the purple did too but a bit faded.  The red not so much.  They are all of course more vibrant raw.
