Your choice should depend on how lazy you are. If you're really lazy, get CSM. It doesn't take much to keep it clean. SW on the other hand, will show dirt like crazy! I say get the color you dig the most. Also, I get tired of peeps saying "silver is boring...blah blah blah". If that's the case, then why do BMW, Infinity, Lexus, & Mercedes Benz all have the color silver in their line-ups?

Anyway, I threw in Super White and more and more i'm thinking about making Super White my #1 choice and putting silver as #2. But then I see a Silver pic and I go back to wanting Silver as #1.

What do you all think? They are similar but also very different.

Your opinions please...
If you ever plan on using touch-up paint on your car--if you ever plan on getting a nick, ding, or scratch you want to hide--go with white.

Damage, dirt, scratches, everything hides better on white.

Silver, however, is just a great color.

good point. i think i'm just going to go with whatever comes first because i think we can all agree on this: having a tC is better than waiting for one.

Silver = $$$

Silver, lowered with fogs and no spoiler looks classy AND mean.

I love my SSM... but the SW is a hot car - but jsut too much to maintain a clean appearance. Don't get my wrong, I wash my SSM like I have OCD, but I couldn't imagine the effort to keep an SW clean.

On a related note to draven's comment... my grandparents love my car... They had driven by a dealer and saw an RS1 and I told them how nice that actually is and I wouldn't mind having that. They went on to say how much nicer the silver is b/c it's a classy looking car. I agree.

I don't know what it is, but i keep seeing Super Whites around here in Chandler, AZ and the more i see it, the more i love it. I think they look great with the all black glass top and it just looks so sharp. I say SW

Out of those two choices I'd go with silver. White cars always look dingy and grimy to me unless they're washed often. That's one reason, as for me I just don't like white cars anyways Just a bit too plain for me.
