I know we have crappy paint and all from the factory...but since i totaled my car...i was looking for another OZ and i found one in Diamond White Pearl. It is very sexy and clean as of now. It has 30k miles on it. For those who have this color...does the paint get reallly messed up and much more noticable since the car is white? I was wondering about the paint chips and grease stains and stuff. My last car was Thunder Gray and never really had a paint issue since it ONLY HAD 16K miles. Anyones experience would help me in deciding to purchase this car or not....

 

80k miles and no problems. Yes, there are chips on the hood and front bumper from driving really fast on the highways but other than that the paint seems to be holding up pretty good.

 

i have a white lancer that i just got painted white again b/c the factory paint looked bland, and before that, i had no poblems with it, only sap i guess.

 

After having mine for 3 years, the paint looks great, granted I am a mad man when it comes to keeping my car clean. The only bad thing is tree sap. I am cleaning sap off everyday.

 

i have diamond pearl whte and i havent had any problems at all! i think that this is the best color out of all of them aslong as you take care of your car wash it, wax it, buff it you should be fine

 

army got a point. Our paints will last and look great for a while as long as you take care of it. I do and my car shines. But it's not perfect since I park my car outside and under a tree everday. Oh wells.

btw..Lancerlover, your evom name fits you well because if I ever got into an accident and totaled it I might consider another car to work on...not the Lancer. Props to you though for the dedication! I would've gotten something AWD or at least something faster than the Lancer.

 

get it! i love my color!

 

verrrrrrry nice color
