Well so far Ultra White with Flaxen seems to be in the lead.
Question for you all. Putting aside that black is hard to keep clean ( which I have done for years on my previous car ) would you still pick Ultra White over Black. I have always thought Black was very manly, bold and sexy looking in a car.
Your thoughts ???

Welcome to CL.....I see you are virtually a brand-new poster.
IMO, avoid black. It's very difficult to keep clean, shows every tiny smudge/tint/scratch, soaks up heat in the summer sun like an oven, and, in many cases, shows more orange-peel in the texture than other colors. The only time black is beneficial, IMO, is in the wintertime when you have ice/snow on the car, the sun is shining, and you are trying to clean or melt the ice off...it soaks up some heat and makes that job a little easier. But most of the time, I'd avoid black.
