My Tundra is white, I think single stage because it does dull between wax jobs, about every six months, not garaged, but a quick clay bar and liquid wax and as good as new.

I chose white for the second time. Mainly because it's a safer color. The car is much more visible in the dark and in the day. So you have less chances of being run into or rear ended.
White is will also stay undamaged the longest because there is nothing in wide to fade, whereas red becomes dirty pink. Black becomes dark grey...

Regardless of aging issues and maintenance, anything black or black like is sexy. Except for black rims. I freaking hate black rims.

I can't drive red, every red vehicle i have owned gets totaled. The blue Fits I have seen is pretty hot. Not the light or the dark blues, those are not.

Thats just sad and makes me almost want to not get a Fit, because in New England, you can count on that happening all year round anywhere you go.
