they always add swirls to the paint,

OK, here's my two coupes, taken care of exactly the same way (machine polished, clay-bared, and freshly zaino'd for these pics):
Black:

Amethyst Graphite (Grey):

As you can see they are both sexy in their own way, but the black car has an amazing mirror-like quality that the grey will never have. That said, 30min after these pics were taken the black car had a nice mist of dust and pollen clearly visible all over it, whereas the grey car looked the same for over a week.... so... it is give n take
one more sweet picture of my old black G35:

and a similar shot of the grey G37:

MalTX, great comparison... those pictures say a thousand words... and that being said, i will continue to buy black cars (just not infiniti due to their ****ty paint... but my mercedes is black and has an incredibly hard clearcoat)... i enjoy putting in the time to detail my cars (it's very relaxing 'me' time) and black always showcases your efforts like no other color ever could...
