Best color for G35?

hey guys, im new here. Well im thinking of buying a used 07-08 g35 and wanted to know your guys opinions on color choice. Which color do you guys think is best in this respect:

1) turns more heads as u roll up to a party

2) easier to maintain

3) will age the best 5yrs down the road

*i currently have a black IS250 and hate it. im never gna buy black again...unless if u guys state otherwise

wow so you guys think black is the best color...quite surprising actually. I absolutely HATE maintaining black. If you guys ever saw my IS you would be shocked at the amount of rock chips and swirls i have on the front bumper and hood of the car...matter of fact pieces of paint are peeling off the hood but i don't care cuz its a lease

colors go through cycles really, so every few years, there's a new IT color. For most of the late 90's early 2000's it's been silver, but recently white is the most sought after color. Black is usually #2... But yea, black looks good when clean, but doesn't show off curves and lines as well as a metallic color. White looks hott, and Silver is nice, but since it's metallic, it'll probably hold up better over time, and it'll also "look" cleaner longer...

I chose LP, but I may be a bit biased... IP is a great choice too.

If Sahara Sandstone is the same as Serengeti Sand, I go for that. Its dark enough to "pop" but light enough so you don't have to wash.wax,buff,and repeat twice a week.
