white with black/platinum vs. black with black/beige
Well, if all goes according to plan I will be buying a C4S cab tomorrow. Both of the cars I am considering are certified and have similar options, prices, etc., and both have two tone interiors which is a must have for me.
When I started shopping I thought a Porsche had to be black. I considered dark blue as well. Never thought about white until the current car popped up with the black/platinum grey interior, and it looks sharp. But so does the black car with the black/beige interior.
I have always sort of regretted my previous black cars, too much work to keep looking clean, but man when they are freshly detailed they can look amazing. For a few days, anyway.
So two months ago I picked up a 2015 suburban in white diamond tricoat, and it is incredible how clean it can look, even when dirty.
I'm rambling. Which should I get?

You can't go wrong with either choice. Black has the edge on looks but you will, as you already know, have to wash it all the time. Also, if you are in a hot sunny climate, white would be my choice.

If you are OCD, black is a bad choice - looks great but hard to maintain. I am happy with my white.

If you go with the black you can put CQuartz or something on it to help. The new products out really make it easier and less likely to scratch. But I never liked white and never owned one so I am biased.

I have never owned a white car and just purchased new Targa in White with Black Interior. I am obsessed with exterior and notice every scratch etc. Car looks amazing in White and I am thrilled with my choice.
