ahhh.. .black or dG???
i had the same dilemma but in the end i chose DG and i'm very happy with it. in the past i had a black car, my friends have black cars, and they all look like crap after two years or so. when i bought the G, i wanted this car to withstand the test of time after say five years. DG was the only choice. it's a nice gunmetal color and it looks great in all kinds of lighting. the best part, you can't really tell when a DG G35 is dirty or have scratches, swirl marks, or dings. it's an awesome color.
Im not being biased when i say this, well maybe i am, but black is just a sexy color on this car. I think it's the best color for this car. Black is elegant, sporty, and devious
But just like having a hot girl, having a hot car is high maintenance. Having a black G myself, I can honestly say I RARELY ever see my car clean. I swear my car is a dirt magnet. Maybe 5 or 6 days after I wash my car, my car is dirty again! Its a nightmare keeping this car clean, but when it is clean.....ohhh man....it's hot

swirl marks n stuff are all avoid able and fix able.. i've had my car for about a month and a half now.. theres no swirl marks on her.. only unavoidable damage such as rock chips and some minor scratces on the wax & clear coat. but yeah dust does build up especiall on the rear/trunk deck of our cars
I always wanted a black car, and I finally got the G in the color that I wanted. I'm not as meticulous as other G owners and was my car once a month, and yes it looks dirty again a few days later.
But for those few days when its clean its look incredible! The black will always look better clean, but the DG will look better after a week without washing. Judging by your posts, you'll regret not getting a black G.
Get the car you want and the color you want. Its worth the hassles.

DG - easy to match with other colors
Black - eh...i'd say it is limited
i agree that black looks better than other colors. (ivory pearl looks great too!)
it depends on how you modify the car. i am going to keep the stock look for some time and i chose to get DG. it is bit of pain when you have a scratch/dent etc regardless of its size. if you already have another car to drive and willing to spend some bucks on the car, get black. otherwise i strongly recommend you to get DG. you wont regret!

I have a black sedan and it really is a b*tch to keep clean. But when it is clean, there is nothing sexier. I love DG as well. I would stick with the DG since you live in an apartment and would have trouble keeping the black G clean. Whatever your choice, have fun and drive safe.
