Had white, got black now. Wouldn't have either again out of choice.
Too much hard work keeping them clean! |

I had the same dilemma when I bought mine and I eventually went for black. I don't regret my choice in the slightest, but one thing I would say though is that depending on what you're planning to change on the car (if anything), you'll find it's easier to get cool looking contrast colours on the white than the black. For example, a gloss black diffuser looks great on a white car, but not so good on a black car. Another example would be wheels, where in my opinion you can play around with colours more on white than black. Just my opinion, I'm sure many will disagree

White better for dust etc. Had metallic black in my recent f10 and it's a complete nightmare for dust scratches swirls etc. Hate to say it but white will be easier to maintain as long as you keep on top of it!

White, had carbon black on my last car, very difficult to keep clean. This would be worse.

I'm a big fan of black. But this is one of the few cars that actually looks good in white. And you can put black wheels on a white car and they won't look rubbish, and I just love black wheels...
