Yes, I think its where I live too.. Its dusty as hell over here.. Literally within 10 minutes of a wash/detail I'd have to bust out the cali duster and sure enough I already had a good layer of dust on my car.
That reflection thing is true too. When clean, the black color shines and reflects so much you can't see the lines and it hides things very well. There is a full side body line that I didn't even realize was there until my friend bought an Caribbean Blue G and it showed in the light.
If you can see the lines on a black car better than any color then why do all ( not all but a huge majority 95% +) car companies use silver or a lighter colored car in advertisements? Because it shows all of the lines.

I love my black car... I just wipe it ever so often in the evening and it keeps it looking good between washes
. *I do have a garage so I guess I cheat :P*

wow wish I knew how to cover the whole car in it (CF) lol
whoa, whoa, whoa.... a thread about OB and I couldn't sniff it out???!?!!
I've had nothing but compliments on my Obsidian Black wonder, although I will agree that it is a pain to keep clean, but clean, it is without a doubt the best color for a G...
p.s. I also regret the 5AT... oh well

tats bad when im too lazy to wash my car i invite a few buddies over and we wash our cars together. it works!
wish I could, but no buddies live around me and usually my busy time is cause of my family. So gas station car washes are good quickie...But I still get compliments on my paint
I park my car in an alley on top of grass and rocks so dust is a big problem, mainly during summer. Been tryin to sell our house so we can buy a individual home with a garage and everything, but impossible in this market.
