If I could do it over again I wouldnt get black, it's looks awesome when it's clean, but it's only clean for a day or 2 at most!

get a california duster, it does wonders for having to wash the car as often.

i'm not too impressed with my black paint job.. even right off the lot it looked kind of bad.. Not to mention I have the hugest freaking paint flaw on my hood they say they wont cover.

I always did like the silver ones. I don't know why but it seems like the ralliart just looks good to me in that color.

Black is a pain in the *** to keep clean but it's worth it. Silver looks really good with some carbon fiber on it though, but it's up to you.

Fully agree. They should be able to do a dealership swap assuming another car exists within a hundred mile radius. I'm very happy with my graphite gray.

I agree too. It'd be patient. It's your money.

Well, its not a big of deal really, with bonuses having silver ( easier to keep clean, doesnt absorb as much heat) balance it out. At first I was pissed when i heard that all they had was black, but now i decided i want the car now anyway; so i have it for my vacation. Plus i also got it in for june 0% APR on 60 month loan too. In the end it balances out fine. I get everything i want, no interest, accesories i want, plus i will be paying less than my roomate with his peice of **** 05 civic with NOTHING ( hub caps, no power windows, no ac, crap engine). Seriously, i saw a chevrolet OPTRA beat him once

When I went to buy I really wanted the grey, but ended up taking the silver because they didn't have any '05 greys left(in 5 spd), but I acutally like this silver, it's got a blue tint to it, so it's not just plain silver.

And yes, it doesn't show dirt very much, but like every other color, when I wash it, it looks sooo much better.

But for sure, if you really want black, and don't like the silver, don't get silver, get black.
