Ordering a Limited...torn between black and vapor silver...opinions?

 

I got the red, but silver was my 2nd choice. Between black and silver, I'd prefer silver. It doesn't show the dirt as much, and stays cooler in the summer sun.

Black looks the best, BUT, it is by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar the hardest to keep up. Even brand spanking new it has scratches. These are all but impossible to hide unless you are a seasoned detailer.

 

Silver looks really cool.

I have a black 08 and it looks great, even with visits to the car wash. I have it detailed when I need a professional wax job, but it doesn't show a lot of scratches in between. My detailer said something about American cars having "harder paint" than Japanese cars (my wife has a black Toyota which shows lots of swirl marks), whatever that means.

Silver looks cool, but black is cooler.
