Silver definitely doesn't show the dirt but, that said IMO it never really looks as good as say black does when it's clean. You just don't get the reward for washing it as you do colors that do show the dirt.

You're brave to change the color of the car. In my experience body shops never get all the jams and engine bay to where you can't tell it was once another color.

i always say nothing shines nicer than a clean black car....but i wash it once a week or so...otherwise it has a linear layer of filth across the car....i dont have experience with the other colors but white or silver would be my guess on easiest to keep clean
