Would you buy a black car again?

[freed0m]

I have a white/white M3P and a black/black MYP, both are beautiful, and upkeeping is the same for me. When a car is filthy, regardless of color, it's dirty and needs cleaning.

I have owned several. For a daily driver? Not just “no” but “hell no”. For a collectible car or weekend-only garage Queen? Sure.

every car i've owned has been a black car.

they are high maintenance to keep it looking clean all the time.

every little spot is easily noticeable on them but i don't mind wiping it down couple times a week. ceramic coating really helps out.

luckily i've been able to park in a garage at home and my job has it's own parking garage.

…I would 100% own black again but only with full ppf…

All my cars are black. You don’t own a black car. A black car owns you. Still, looks beautiful when clean. Ceramic coating makes a huge difference.

I had several black cars (not Tesla), was debating between the Blue and Black MYLR...went with Blue since I never had a blue car. I always keep my car washed and clean so black has never been an issue. I would consider full front PPF to avoid chips and dings on the front areas which are much more noticeable in black.

Currently I have the White M3LR and never again going with white. The plastics get this barely noticeable yellow/orangish hue after a year. I do like the AC runs less, since it stays cooler while parked at work.

Between black and white...I'd go black 100%.

Yes, black is best. Just make sure you get ceramic.

I keep it outside most days.

Black EVs are the new "coal rolling".

Silver and white cars are cooler, says study

(PhysOrg.com) -- From an environment standpoint, silver and white cars are cool; black cars are not. Researchers at the Berkeley Lab Environmental Energy Technologies Division (EETD) say that the color of your car affects your car's fuel economy and how seriously you contribute to pollution. A...

I was interested to see comments from people with black and ceramic to see if it really helps make them a little more user friendly

The cleanest it will ever be after Johnny @ Detailership gave it some PPF and Ceramic

You don’t own a black car. A black car owns you.

I think this quote sums it up nicely!

I live in the South of France...a white car is the best...the air con works hard enough without the car being a dark color

 

[pipestem]

Nope. We’ve had black, msm, and pearl. Black was the worst in quality look and maintenance. I think if they made it in a sapphire metallic it would look great.

You could not give me a black car! Not that they do not look nice just, that they only look nice for about 3 minutes after a quick wash. If your wash takes too long, the part you started on is already dirty by the time you finish.
