    Sure it does! At the right time of day... Dusk, dawn, or night under the lights.

    Re: Dark grey or white

    A lot… well not as much the last few months since I found sim racing. I take care of our cars very well. Kinda annoyed I sunk so much time, energy and money into my current car which is 3 years old and will be gone when I get the new car haha

    Re: Dark grey or white

    I went from black to white. Black was way more satisfying after afternoon of detailing…. Till I drove it for 15 minutes and she needed detailing again. Love a white car. You can make it pop/glow just won’t get that mirror like reflection.



    And yes looks lovely with red calipers. Hopefully these go on this week. Red tow hook too.



    Believe this was after a wash and a layer of Shinee wax. I think she looks good in pic and looked 100 times better.



    White, red and black are my favorite colors. But now black is on the fence after owning one

    If you have ocd and love cleaning your car, dark colors are hard to beat. If your want a part time job get a pure black ride.

    Re: Dark grey or white

    If you like clean cars but don't like cleaning cars, a metallic grey is a little slice of heaven. Black is a little slice of 'The other place'.

    I'd like a white car sometime though; white done right just looks so very classy.

    Yes.

    I'm so glad I chose "Mineral Gray Metallic" when I ordered my truck.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Nice, yeah I’m leaning towards white tbh. I’m going the sunroof model which gives it a black gloss roof and will look nice. I’ve also been looking at blacked out decals, badges and lights which I think would really make it pop for me. Plus white is cheaper and I plan on getting ppf on the front which is very expensive here, so that kinda offsets that cost a bit too.
