Both look very good!
1. how dirty does it get where you live? 2. how ocd are you when it comes to keeping your car clean?

I'm in the same boat but between White and Gun Metallic for the new Z I'm getting. I'm leaning towards white. I feel you can do more mods to it. My only fear is the discoloration between the panels on the white.

Needing opinions, well there is no place more abundant with them than the internet so be careful what you ask for. Are you from Glendale CA, AZ or ???
Anyway I say White for a couple of reasons. Black accents & carbon fiber work very well with this color. Whites do not fade as bad as other colors. Really depends on you, your spending the money & it is always better to get what you want than to wish you had. Take a look at the links Drex posted as well as stop into a dealership or 2. There are always car meets to check on rides as well. Good luck in your search.

Don't listen to the people who tell you to get what you want, get the white one! I'm kidding of course, but not really. I would have gotten the white one but I really wanted a 40th. My next one will be white.

I've got the Pearl White and I get compliments on it everywhere I go. It has more depth than any of the other colors and just looks plain sexy! You know what they say, "once you go white, you know you did right".

Neither, and here's why...
The Z's shade of red is what the cops call "arrest me red". Nuff said?
A plain white Z, like the Porsche Boxster, looks like a refrigerator. The Pearl White shade is a little better...a little. Don't worry, that still leaves a lot of other colors to disrespect. Actually, I kinda like the maroon, the blue, and--of course--the gunmetal. (Why "of course"? 'Cause that's my Z's color!) All meant in good fun...you will enjoy whatever color you pick. Congratulations on your new car! |

Hmmm, I'd be leaning towards the pearl white, if you are a Carbon Fiber fan, I find they offset each other really well...or even just black accents.
I'd be worried about the cleaning though... Funny enough for me i wasn't sure what color I wanted as I had come from a silver car (red before that) thought black...but then the Quartz color of the 40th called out to me. The one thing I will say is I don't see much reds...never in person and not that many on the board
