Just when I thought I'd decided on GT Silver (thanks Karl Leonard), you guys start w/ the Anthony Weiner jokes and I see this gorgeous postings of the car in white (some of the best I've seen). Argh.

These are the first set of silver wheels I've seen. I do like the gray but the brighter finish brings out the details. So hot on white.

Today at the dealer saw this car waiting for it's owner. Not sure all the details as to why it wasn't picked up yet. It's been for for few day's. It had clear tail light. You be the judge.

IMHO, the clear tail looks good on Silver followed by white. It may effect resale but it is easily fixable just cost $2K to fix by replacing it to red tail light.

Only my opinion on the wheels, but the shading on the platinum ones from gray to black enhances the overall impression of depth, while the silver spokes on the black barrels don't, at least in the pics. Also, silver is going to show brake dust much more quickly than gray. Just a thought...
