Black vs White...I can't decide!!

Rooster · 04-27-2009, 01:40 PM

I can't decide which color to get. Black or white. Once I think i've made up my mind, it gets changed when I see the other color

. I really like black because I always wanted a black car and black is my favorite color, but I hear that I will regret getting a black due to its high maintenance (gets dirty quickly, swirl marks, high visible scratches & chips). Also, whenever I see white, I fall in love with its clean and classy look. I have seen several black in person and they were almost all dirty. But i haven't even seen a white in person. I am torn between a hassling yet beautiful black over a less hassling and classy white. If anyone had the same problem, how did you choose? What do you guys think?

Once, I make this decision I can move onto the interior color. After that, I can finally get a 370z. Help me decide guys. Any help will be appreciated.

You won't be able to see the neighborhood in the white's refection.

I was split between black and white myself... until I saw the blue in person. IMO black and white look great on luxury cars like Audi's and BMW's. The 370Z is a sports car, make it stand out... just my opinion, you'll love your Z no matter what color you get.

I vote for White:

White Zs with White/Black theme looks really good!

Well I would personally choose Yellow, but between those two I would definitely go with White.

When I got my white one home ... I made love to it.
Well, maybe not, but yeah, white looks pretty good.

If you have the time and prepared for the work, your white car will never look like this.

Updated with real camera pictures. no mas cell phone

But it takes more than normal ammount of work to keep it like this.

If you like washing your car, get black. If you hate washing your car, get white.

What was done to make that first white 370z pic shown to make those tail lights like that? Those lights look slick.
