I've heard that certain colors attract more negitive attention than others.
I'm in the process of purchasing a white accord.
Leave it white or paint it?

Well, i hear that white is just an all around dirty color... It gets dirty quick.
I was thinking either Black or midnight blue...-Lance- (Formally known as H0ndaspyd3rLM)

If you think white is bad, black is the same or worse and it will show every little scratch....

I like white.. Ive never had a white car but my parents do. The cars I have owned were, red, tan, light blue, bourdeax red, and black was the worst!

the darker the color, the faster it gets dirty....most dirt, dust, mud has a light color to it....Originally posted by H0ndaSpyd3rLM
...but then again the darker the color the better it looks when clean.
If you want to go with a dark color, get some extra metallic flake added to it, then in the sunlight the paint will glow, helping to hide paint imperfections and dirt. At night time, the paint will look proper.

you can never go wrong with white. ive owned 6 white cars in a row, not including the other 4 white cars that have been in the family
its such a clean color when its fresh and shiny... sure its not as colorful, but nothing else looks quite as sharp. i love the contrast against the black.
colors are cool, too... but if youre going to get a color, get something not too common... find a color that has a flake or pearl to it, and not a normal shade of color... something mixed, like a slate-grey blue or something.

I like my color, didn't at first but now i appreciate it b/c of its dirt hiding capabilities. I havn't washed it in over month, and its rained 3 times at least. But i did clean the wheels/tires today, thats why they're so shiny

I say keep it white!
Black cars are sexy, but show dirt easily.

Gray works. Mine is Phantom Gray, which looks almost like black. It hides dirt and scratches a little better than black. Lighter gray is even better.
I like white, as my GTP is white... but I dunno... seems to be a very common color. It does hide damage pretty well, and as long as the dirt is evenly distributed, it'll just turn beige until you wash it!
