[QUOTE="omnimech, post: 687281, member: 33119"] Just to give you food for thought. 1. Black is harder to upkeep than white. You can easily see swirl marks and dust deposits under the sunlight on a black surface thus requiring frequent wash and wax. Invest in a good coating. Detalien, who is a club vendor does an excellent job. Nearly 2 months in and I have yet to see swirl marks. (Mind you my maid does the washing) 2. White gives an impression of looking bigger in size. Agreed. But Black with our white DRLs are an excellent contrast .. Thats what I think anyways. 3. Black absorbs heat and White reflects heat. Somehow it feels hotter inside a black car compared to a white car when parked under the sun. Get good tinting. The tinting on my car is excessive but it gets the job done. All done for free by SA @ Ingress. Getting in the car after a hot day at work is normally accomplish without scalding to the ass. My gf can attest to that :) [/QUOTE]
