Black is tough to maintain, especially with the crappy paint Nissan uses. White is a pretty common Nismo color. The GM is a pretty rare color and looks awesome, easy choice if it were me.

That's my ride thx hdskull. PW looks classy on these cars and shows all the curves IMO. Metallic Black looks mean and stealth. Red looks aggressive and stands out the most. Silver looks great too. You can't go wrong with any of those colors... Your pick.

the GM is easy to care for. It hides small imperfections well, and dirt for that matter.

Black will keep you busy.

I like white because it really pops when you add black wheels and black accents, or white wheels. It takes longer to get dirty than the others, but white never seems to pay off after waxing and detailing. It never seems to have that DEEP look that the other colors have.

about the GM being easy to care for though it might be dull without the black rims.
I don't have issues with the white paying off after waxing and detailing. It actually shines so much that it gets blinding under sunlight. The main thing with white is to be on the lookout in parking lots and for debris on the road, it is just not as forgiving as other colors. This is where the clearbra is a must. On many instances, I noted marks that would have done damages to the paint had the clearbra not been thick enough, nice rub and voila everything is back to brand new state.
