Okay.... Graphite Metallic wins... No one else has the colour and chicks did it... Is black or is it grey? It can create an entire evening of conversation....

Oh yah, if coupled with flux capacitor.... it's capable of light speed.

White would be the hardest to keep looking GOOD. I didn't say clean. Old white cars can look aged if not shiny and polished. But when they are cleaned up and fresh looking, they look like they're draped in love lol.

I'd take a white car over a dark color car anyday based on keeping it clean. I thought my white 924S was a pain to keep clean until I got a dark blue car and that was much worse. Black is the worst...but it sure does look good when clean!

Tan/peuter is the easiest color to keep clean where as black is the hardest. Tan is the ugliest, black is the prettiest.

Black is the best looking color when clean. However, it doesn't stay clean long at all. Clean in my eyes means that it's even dust free. If it so much as has a little dust or brake dust on it...might as well be filthy. Black is also one of the hardest colors to perfect, along with white. Black shows EVERY detail and scratch. White hides a lot, and that's what makes it so hard. It's hard to buff a white car. Takes a very keen eye.

Both are beautiful on a 944. Black shows the curves perfectly, but damn my guards red S2 looks good. Hmm... Lol
