White vs Shinka

Ok here's the deal: I've always liked white cars but saw a shinka at the dealership and couldn't stop drooling. But... that white pearl color is also gorgeous. So... what color you ladies and gents like better.

BTW it is purely a hypothetical question since I cannot afford to buy an 8 'till about a year and a half from now, at least

Definitely white! Of course I may be a little biased due to the fact that I own a white 8...

I've got a black, but I must say I prefer the white over the Shinka. Tint the windows and the car resembles a Storm Trooper

I saw a white 8 on the road the other day, it was very striking. With the Shinka, unless you're standing right next to it staring at it under direct sunlight, it just looks like another dark car. Plus I think it is overpriced. Plus I think the kanji logo on the side looks tacky. IMHO.
