Going to get a G sedan soon!! Color?
I have black/black and it's definitely a hell to keep it clean. Now I just put a car cover on and that's about the only way to keep it clean.
Black/Black definitely I think it's the best looking color when clean. I would of picked IP if my other car isn't white. IP I think in my opinion looks just as sharp as Black. Silver/DG would be the color to get if you are lazy to keep it clean.

And yeah i am not gonna be a clean fanatic on every little thing, but my only problem is that the IP they got here, only comes with wheat interior rather than the graphite which i prefer!!!
I dont know, hard decision!!

From what I understand, it gets over 120 degrees F in the UAE with sandstorms. Dude, I wouldn't buy a black car. The only reason they have them over there is so that they can put the women in them and tint the windows black.
I have Black/Wheat and have no regrets (too many black interiors in the past-needed a change). The one thing about black is you know if you miss a spot when you wash it. I can barely tell if I miss a spot on my wifes silver SUV. When Black is clean there is nothing like it IMHO.
Having worked in Dubai, I would definitely not go with black for several reasons:
1) Sand: blows around like snow drifts do here. It gets into every crack and crevice and will certainly scratch the paint as you drive. Black will display these scratches the worst. Note: a full front clear-bra will be a must for any color.
2) Heat: 50 degrees C plus in the summer says it all. Black may be fine at night, but crazy in the day at those temps.
3) Foreigners cannot have tinted windows in Dubai on their cars, so you won't get any radiant protection from the sun.
4) You won't be washing the car as much, without your own indoor sand free area to use, and when you do, you will need to be absolutely sure you have no sand in the water or towels. Good luck meeting those 2 conditions.
So...since you don't want to be mistaken for a taxi, and the white only looks good with tint, I would go with the Lakeshore slate, with black interior. The black interior and factory tint will give the appearance of a darker tint...at least more so than the wheat interior. However the wheat will hide the sand better.
