But I gotta tell ya--for the difference in price you'll save by waiting until December, you'll get way more than that much fun value out of the car if you buy it now. I bought mine at the end of July, and although I got a good deal on it, and although they're even cheaper now, I was kicking myself for not getting it sooner. It's that much fun to drive! Mine is liquid platinum. I love how the color changes in different lighting. Mostly it looks silver, but sometimes it looks lavender (not the most manly color, but I'm okay with that) and other times it looks like a cornflower blue color. It hides the dirt pretty well. I wash it when I notice the brake dust on the front wheels. Other than that, I don't notice the dirt. Black is a notoriously bad color for dirt. As others in the board have said, every speck of dirt shows up. We had a black MPV for a while, and I'd have to wash it twice at times because the soap residue would show up on it. I haven't done any testing on interior temperature differences, but science says that a lighter car would be cooler inside.

Car can really stand out and I think it looks sharp. Doesn't show dirt that bad. I a few red cars and I have had more tickets in a red car than any other color I've had... make that all the tickets I've had..Knock on wood!!! I have had 2 black cars and after the first I siad not again but for some reason I got another and then I realized how stupid I was for getting another one. I remember washing my black car in the shade and the sun started hitting the back and within a few minutes I sprayed water in that area and saw steam that quick. Go with the color you like best. |

Replying to: eviljoe (Oct 17, 2006 9:32 pm) Re dirt; if you really like the car you'll wax it often and hose off/hand dry 2x/week. You'll be paying for it for a while, get something you actually like. I saw the black today; it has glittering mica flecks in it so when buffed out it'll look great, and not like everyone else's car.

| If you don't like red which is a beatiful color in speed6 liquid platinum is the next best. Black scratches to easy 2 much work to keep it the paint flawless. | |
