silver if you don't plan on doing anything else with it, clean all the time.


white is hella sick when you do stuff to it. blacked out

White shows the dirt pretty fast. Also, the primer on the bumper is black so any chips stick out like a sore thumb. The rest of the primer appears to be grey so chips on the hood are also noticeable. But if you go with a clear bra that might not be an issue for you. I have white, if I were doing it again, I'd go with silver.

Silver, but both look better with a flat black tint.

White. Silver is too commonplace.

Whoever said white shows dirt fast has obviously never owned a light colored car. Light cars reflect more light, they dont absorb dirt like white clothing. A lighter car will appear cleaner than it actually is due to light reflection. A dark car will show dust and dirt much easier than a lighter colored car. I vote IP. Then again i am biased and have owned nothing but white vehicles haha.

MW is a good color but yes, it shows dirt faster than silver color. I've owned both silver and white. I can see a couple dirt lines after raining w/ my white cars. Silver is best color if you don't want to spend too much time cleaning your car.

You obviously have never had a white car where
a) the dirt is, well, dirty
b) the crap they put on the streets in the winter is more or less black.

I agree, however, that when the roads are dry, white is easier to keep clean than black.

My car, as I stated, is white (my previous one was a Volvo S60R Black Sapphire Metallic). I would, therefore, say that I have owned a white car.

I vote LP for the sedan (but IP for the coupe). Here's my LP with 35% tint and midnight grille to help push you towards LP - haha. My rear lip and front chin spoiler are on back-order (argh!) but my HL/TL overlays from BAT will be here anyday!
