Which new color would show the least dirt (dust)

[larrykoch100]

Available is Midnight silver (dark grey), metallic red, and blue (the new blue HOV stickers (CA) would blend in. Thoughts. I have a feeling red might catch cops eyes (i speed),

MSM shows dirt/dust almost as bad as black. White is best for not showing dirt IMO.

If you speed, the "Give-me-a-ticket-Red" may not be the best choice. Ask me how I know... The white works best, nothing for me in the last 2 years since and I still drive the same way. A CHP passed by me doing 85 mph last week on I10 and didn't even look at me twice, while just few years ago, I've got hit for driving 76 mph on the same freeway. It's the Toyota Corolla effect, you just blend in, one of the many. Plus the dust ain't bad at all on white. Blue is bad for dust.

Thanks, these all help. Going with Midnight Silver on Tesla 3 performance mainly so I can get the 4 year HOV sticker. The red on my 2018 expires in Jan.
