just looking for your opinions on this..

only have se at mo...boo

been looking at pics and prices aaaaarrrhh..but not sure what to go for....black or grey?

black....grey....no black....grey...
really like them both oh i just can't decide...i have heard that keeping a black car clean is abit of a pig..shows the dirt more quickly...and yes it will get cleaned every weekend.... oh man i'm gonna get divorced over this car.... such is life

Black!!! I wanted a grey one until i saw a dirty one and the wheels blended into the car. At least with blacks there's still a contrast in colour!

Black looks good 5 seconds after polishing, platinum looks great all the time

Black... come to think of it I might have a gorgeous black one for sale...

Yellow

Black, for all the usual reasons - faster, sexier etc. etc.

Black ones look very smart when cleaned and polished, however they show every bit of dirt and they are a pain to keep clean. The platinum ones are metallic and and slightly harder paint as well, the solid paint is pretty poor in terms of its ability to stand up to stone chips etc.

I'll second that!

I will never own another non-metallic black car again, keeping swirls to a minimum was impossible. It's very rare you'll see a black car that looks good in direct sunlight.

If you do go for a black one, inspect it under bright sun if you can.

exactly
but for those 5 seconds it makes it all worth while

i would say black as im slightly biased..although i was originally going to get a platinum one only for my g/f to tell me it made the car look ugly (girls eh..) which swayed me to getting the black one..looks superb on saturday and sunday, when its been cleaned...but come wednesday its filty again..but plenty excuse to clean it again the following weekend :-D

"red" Sexy, Hot, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Al_G]

Platinum...

I wanted a black one but with all the rain we get in this country there seemed little point. Theres a black one near me and it always looks dirty! I know for a fact he cleans his more than mine too!

 

[Big_daddy]

Pink
