ChargerMatt Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 From a black car to a lighter colored car, was it the most amazing feeling in the world? Going from my big and black charger to my small and tangerine focus is going to be one of the happiest days of my life. Not only because it's going to be one hell of a car, but it's going to be so much easier to maintain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z71_Denali Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 yes! white was a great decision for our daily drivers! but when i get my weekend warrior again, nothing beats a deep, dark metallic red, blue, or black! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dv3andrs Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I went from the black titan to a white Jetta, I haven't washed it since I bought the thing over a month ago and it still looks good! Well, the wheels have brake dust on them, but otherwise...looks good! Going to probably wash it and wax it next weekend and call it good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 ABSOLUTELY!! I'm not in the garage obsessing every day any more. Only thing I do daily now is to dust off the vert top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02Xtreme07ss Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I love my silver TBSS because it doesn't show every blemish, but it will never replace my black TBSS. As much work as a dark vehicle is, it is also the most rewarding, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goheels Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Completely agree with the op. went from black to gray for my car and white on my wife's suv. With a family and children I don't have the same kind of time to take care of a black vehicle to my satisfaction. Never again will I own a black car.

Jonothon Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Yep, every car I've ever had was red. Now I have a white Passat and it hides a multitude of sins but when you have the time, it polishes out nicely! It becomes incandescent, completely unlike a dark paint.

Mongosg8 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Once I went White I never went back! Switched to white cars years ago and was best decision I made. I had black, red, blue, will never purchase another dark color car again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parshooter Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I went from a black Monte Carlo to a PSM G8 and love it. I really doubt that I will EVER have a black car again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 One of the main reasons I'm getting rid of my G8 is because it's black... It wasn't an issue until they put a concrete plant across the street from work... Now it's dirty immediately. I will be buying white or silver for my next vehicle. If it doesn't come in either of those colors, I won't buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'm loving the Silver on the new truck, but I do miss the black occasionally. I'm sure this winter I'll be loving silver more than ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhh... YEAH! All except the rail dust you may incur which you probably won't seeing you have access to a wash bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE Mook Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Uhh... YEAH! All except the rail dust you may incur which you probably won't seeing you have access to a wash bay. Not too much of that around here. It's the industrial fallout near the Warehouse that worries the everlivin' outta me. I don't care what color I'm driving, it's gonna be perfect all the time. So that anxiety won't ever leave me! Good luck with the Orange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kustom_FX Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 White from Black.. next will be red or silver.. so done with the ends of the spectrum! The rail dust and cinders on my paint in the spring take to 2 days to remove. I would love my next color to hide them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty common around here as they use salt of the like on the roads and then with the brake dust from your car and others it's inevitable. Washing my car after every snow storm almost eliminates it though. My wife's metallic brown Enclave is the BOMB for showing NOTHING. It has 109,000+ on it and looks AMAZING.

goodmanXX3 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 i went from a V6 black camaro to an orange SS (V8) camaro and though the shiny black cars still catch my attention (my father has three black cars) i know that they will only look like that for a day or two lol. i washed the black camaro every week, sometimes twice and i've washed the orange camaro about once or twice a month lol.

Diggerdan11 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Well I love my Black Truck but I so excited that I can now drive my Tahoe during the winter, park the SS and only drive it when the weather is nice. Should keep it much better looking this year. My Tahoe is Pewter and even when its filthy it still looks pretty clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDude Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 yes! white was a great decision for our daily drivers! I agree with Ryan on that. My new daily driver is sliver and I looks like it is going to be about as easy as the white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChargerMatt Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 Matt any pictures???? I'm holding off on it until spring so that 1) I don't have to drive a new car through the snow when I first get it & 2) don't have to learn to drive a stick in the snow.
