I'd go with Diamond Graphite but i understand your predicament, i had to ask the same question. Scratches do show up on the graphite pretty easily.

Black. Even if it's hard to keep clean, it doesn't matter to me, it's my color, my second choice is a tie between DG and Red.

Tan interior is disgusting IMO, way too... I don't even know, it's just too hard on my eyes

I have 05 6MT in black so I'm a little biased, but I'm one of those people that don't really feel white.. I looked at 05 white one and just didn't feel it.. came down to a DG or black one for me and I took the black, if you take care of it its amazing... plus I already had a grey car

Diamond Graphite caught my eye in 03' when the car cam out, looooves it. Finally started shopping in late 07' for the car, black caught my eye like crazy. Started looking at ads and wwooooowww, the market is flooded with them. Saw an IP and it was all over at the time. Not as easy to keep clean as everyone is saying on here. However, slap a coat of Zaino on there and it's way clean. I don't mind the maintenance. It just gives a really classy look. I absolutely love the color.

Can't go wrong with any of them but I prefer DG on black interior...thats what i call sexy and classy. I had a choice of a brand new 07 DG, OB,LP or a used Laser Red but at the end I picked DG. The color stays clean longer then I expect and hide scratches pretty well, but the sparkle in the paint is what caught my eyes.

Too bad they didn't have twilight blue. Thats the sexiest color period.

I love my OB coupe, but it gets dirty/dusty so easily, sometimes I wish I bought a IP

Ivory Pearl is a really nice color......its subtle, and classy. It doesn't require the constant attention as say the darker colors, and it shines nicely when its clean.

The bad part is the three stage paint.....harder to match, more money to repair.....and the front bumper shows chips and bug guts really easy.

I repainted my bumper after 30,000 miles because it looked like $hit.

If you could find an 04 6MT w/Graphite interior, I would say go for it. Pretty hard to find since the willow/tan was so popular that year.

Good luck with your decision.
