I Absolutely would NOT get black again. Just too much work for an every day car. If I had multiple vehicles, and a garage I would consider it.

Black vehicles always look worse to the owners that spend the time washing and waxing it and know every inch of the body. But to the average person looking at your car, what looks good to them looks bad to you the owner. JMO

Once you get the process down pat....it's a snap to keep it sparkling ....I wouldn't change...everyone knows black is by far...the prettiest car color....I'm just a lil biased

I'd probably get that orange ine. What do they call it IOM?. It had orange interior inserts. Was $2k more. But if I had ut to do again I'd get that one. But man. Nothing as sharp as a cleaned black Camaro.

I've owned a Black car before & I will never own another in that color. The key about detailing a Black car is what another members said "Process" meaning you can't do a simple wash, wax, and detail. It's instead a drawn out process that takes all day or an entire weekend using some of the most expensive products on the market.

Nothing beats the looks of a nice Black car, Alot of work to keep it there, but worth it....

I've had a few black vehicles in my day and will never buy one again. Impossible to keep clean, god awful hot in the summer, and I think black fades much quicker than any other paint.
