Your kidding right? Even when black gets dust on it it looks worse than white. When it rains black looks the worst. But when clean black is the best show color.

yea that's what i was trying to say. nice show color when clean.

drivingincamaro · 09-06-2008, 11:15 AM

IMO if i was going to get white i would put these stripes on it

but hey if whites your thing go for it

this would be a another choice for me

silver is easy to keep clean.. the easiest. and ^^ those stripes are niiiiiice i love the color. but i wouldn't have it go all the way to the bumper just the end of the hood.

I will get black and clean it everyday if I have to...or maybe just go and see what it looks like first!

Screw991le · 09-06-2008, 11:49 AM

Problem with black, is unless you cover it and Zaino it once a week, every little scratch, and swril mark shows up. Again very nice color but a PITA to keep clean. The last black car I owed was over 15 years ago. I had no choice it was a GN and only came in black.

16yearoldcamarodriver · 09-06-2008, 12:06 PM

Then I will get white...or not...AAHAHA! It's so hard to choose!

FenwickHockey65 · 09-06-2008, 12:42 PM

Yeah, that's one of my pet peeves with black. Car looks great when it's clean, looks horrible when it's not.

I might just settle for Cyber Gray Metallic instead.

I think the stripes should stop at the end of the hood as well, stripes on the bumper look too cluttered.

Trust me, you do not want black. You say you will clean it every day, but in reality, with a teenage schedule, it doesn't happen. If you don't clean it the exact right way, then you will get strange swirls and scratches and it looks horrible to you, even if others can't see the imperfections like you can. I own a black car, I gave up on keeping it spotless, it just doesn't happen. Go with white, I had a white truck and that looked near spotless unless you got reeeeeal close.

My options are between red or blue. Probably blue since red fades faster than any other color. But the red looks amazing, and I have yet to see a good rendering of blue. I'll keep that decision on hold, I have everything else figured.

Red hides dirt pretty well also.
