I have this hypotetical MySQL table:

TABLE cars: (year, color, brand)

How do I count # of cars grouped by brand and year? I mean, how can I get to know how many colors are there grouped by brand like:

brand "GM": total # of colors: 8.

brand "GM": total # of years (grouped together): 14 (meaning there are count of 14 different years).

brand "TOYOTA": total # of colors: 3.

brand "TOYOTA": total # of years (grouped together): 10 (meaning there are count of 14 different years)

I tried playing some queries with COUNT, DISTINCT, GROUP BY but I can't get to it.

Actually I'm trying to get the 2 queries...

+-------+---------------+
| brand | count(colors) |
+-------+---------------+

+-------+--------------+
| brand | count(years) |
+-------+--------------+

thanks a lot!
