The thing is,

I think the ONLY color that looks good enough to own in the G is the Black with 18's.

That is why I bought mine

I live in Florida where it rains every 10 minutes in the summer. I will just have to live with it.

Black is defnitely the sexiest color. I went with IP because I don't have time to maintain a black car. IP is nice, but not near as sexy as black.

I have black, it looks soooo hot when its clean...
I have no problem washin ma car, but the swirl marks drive me insane, they can be seen from miles away, and its not like im washin ma car with sandpaper, i use only chamois.
If i were u i would go wit DG, thats what i wish i had.

I've had a lot of black rides because they bring out the best in most cars. As people have said, it requires work but what car doesnt. If you love your car and want it to look it's best? You have to work for it. If it was easy, everyones ride would look hot! my $.02

After having had 2 black cars, I would never ever go back to black again. If you are a neat freak, in a manner of speaking, you'll spend many additional hours keeping your car clean.

my last 2 vehicles have been black and I won't buy anything else. nothing looks hotter than a black car when its been freshly waxed, plus you can black out everything and tint the windows and it looks super mafia style

I like black because you will easily know if you missed a spot while washing your car. With lighter colors I could never tell if everything was clean. Plus after a few hours of detailing a light car the difference is minimal.
