TAn cars are good for hiding dirt. I always thought that silver was about the best at this. A silver care never looks terrible, but teh flip side is that it never looks great either.
 
You can't beat a good gray interior for hiding the dirt inside.

Only looks good on Cadillac's, the mid-late 90's Buick Riveria's and all generations of the Aurora. It also looks okay on some Trucks, but for the most part I prefer other colors.

Here's the link - holler if you can't see it that way. You may have to flush your cache or something.

Where was that taken?
 
Can't be Florida (only one Caddy) and can't be Arizona (only one Buick).

Didn't Ford make a special all white edition of the Sable 15-20 years ago? Everything on the car was white even the badging (ok the brake lights were still red).

Get the color you want.
 
Personally, I hate white cars, but I never really thought about whether white is "manly" or not.
 
I know that pink or lime green isn't manly, but white always seemed kind of neutral to me -- neither manly nor unmanly. It's just there -- nondescript -- which is probably why I don't like it.

Growing up I was always reminded that white pants were not manly but that is about it. I probably see more males in white cars than females, and I would probably buy a white car in the future.
