Default Question for the camo green army????

How is the camo when it comes to showing dirt and stuff. overall do you like your choice of color. still deciding what i want myself, since it will be a few months till i get a boxcar myself. Also for you guys with white ones, thought it would be funny if someone put pictures and school papers held up by magnets on the side, to go with the whole fridge thing. :D :D

It shows the dirt alright. But it is the best color out there. Dramatically changes shades depending upong the lighting.

You can't beat a camo with black wheels.

It's not too bad about showing everyday grime from the road until it's built up for a while. Anything like sand or clay will show up well becuase of the color contrast. If you wash once a week and don't travel through a lot of mud it'll never look dirty.

It will show dust a few days after a wash, but if you wax it, then you can run water over it and wipe it down, looks good again. I have a silver car also and the same deal for it too.

The Camo rocks, its the best choice. And when its clean its clean. I have to agree with the prev post, Camos look good in black rims, bronze look really good too.

it shows dirt easily but IMO it's the best color in all the xB's. I try to keep mine clean as long as it doesn't rain here in DFW.

I have a camo and a bsp and i think the bsp shows a crap load more dirt and grime than the camo. My friend has bop and that thing always looks dirty, so stick with the camo..

All colors will look dirty eventually anyway right? I love the camo color, I waited for it for a month could've had a TCM in a day. Camo looks absolutely great with carbon fiber accessories.

When the camo is clean, it is super glossy. Especially at night with parking lot lighting and moonlight. Also, you have the best choice with the wheels, silver, chrome, gold, bronze, and black all look right... Hell, even red looks good...

eh chadfo?

Yeah, Camo is very hard to keep clean. But by far it is the best color for the xB. When it is clean people know it.

What is your second choice?
