Search for a white and black one in your area and whatever one you can get the best deal on should be the one you get.

I take my current car 01 Altima to a Car wash every other weekend, and usually the day after it snows. I will follow the same with the 8, except if I decide that I want to hand wash it... which I have the feeling I will. Then it will be more of a when I can kind of thing at least once a month though. I know a great detailer, and although I've only done my car once they did great, even some touch up paint work and I cant tell the difference. Not sure how often I'd have to do that though... but I'd definitely do it the beginning of every summer.

Funny bias ...white is the all-time prefered color of rental car companies. You'll see more white cars in a Hertz lot than any other. I travel on business a lot and have always associated white cars with banquet chicken. You know, the dish the bride chooses to serve so she won't offend anybody.


Black is bad. White is banquet chicken.



(and red is hot & sexy!)

Black and white are both cool, but red rolls up and smacks you in the mouth. Ever see Scarlett Johanssen in a red dress? Just like that.

just get BRILLIANT BLACK! there's a reason it's the first color listed in the sales brochure. (i think it's because it has a few more horses than the other colors) I kid, I kid. not really but I kid!

After a wash, nothing looks as nice as a shiny black car.

I have an white rx8, but i got it has a teal-ish color. Ive always liked my white cars cause if you think about it, like most ppl say.. it shows all the curves and other details. Black on black doesnt really show much cause it hides it all. But it all depends, the way i see it as, there both clean. But... white is more like royal and smooth clean, and black is more like bad@$$ evil style. So its a hard choice i would say, but when i was deciding on a new paint job, i had to go with my white, looks more clean and nice to me.
