Cars get dirty at the same rate despite whatever color it is.
How you upkeep the car depends on your quality of your washes. Proper wash techniques, proper tools, and quality products.
If your using Dawn, or the cheap autozone car wash that comes in gallons, an old mop bucket, old dirty sponge, and an old bath towel, yeah, your black car is gonna look like s*** after a couple washes.
Votes NCZ13 as the best answer.
------------------------
Now my .02 worth
A. color ONLY matters in HEAT
conditions, black = MORE HEAT
absorbed = hot to the touch car
in summer. WHITE = less heat.
RED = more speeding tickets (just kididng)
B. NEWER cars, 2001 and up
have CLEAR COATING that is
10X better than anything in the past
C. Washing is MUTE when talking about COLOR.
D. HOWEVER, washing is a
personal opinion, and how it
looks when its dirty is to vague
a statement to give some guy
advice OVER THE INTERNET on
what he should buy.
E. Each persons judgment about
how dirty a car is based on too
many variables to say Black is
worse than white, etc.
F.
What NCZ13 said
is SO TRUE, cheap products, poor
habits, and lack of attention to
detail will cause the CLEAR COAT
to look like crap regardless of COLOR (attn)
C. COLOR now days are YOUR
CHOICE, you already said I like
it so its up to you.
NOTE: is it really HOT where
you live during the summer?
AND can you handle driving a
hot to the touch BLACK paint
job car."
Good luck.
NOW,to everyone else,
Im shocked no one has
chimed in and stated the obvious,
we should have told him
I'd be WAY MORE WORRIED ABOUT...
1. Engine maint, performance
2. Miles
3. Interrior condition
4. Brake pads
5. TIRES
6. Battery
7. List goes on
WAY BEFORE I WAS WORRIED ABOUT THE COLOR (crazy)
But, then again,
its the internet,
and EVERYTHING
on the INTERNET
is TRUE. (rlaugh)
peace!(rei)
