Default tC anticipation is killing me...

So last week I went into my local Scion dealer in hopes of driving and finding my dream tC. Strangely enough I found the exact one for me; silver, automatic, never test driven. So I left for an hour to have lunch and deliberate, only to return and find someone singing the papers for the silver tC. The only ones left are a BSP and BCP that have a few miles of test driving on them, but I don't really want a dark car that always looks dirty.
So after apologizng profusely, my salesman told me he would call all neighboring dealerships to find a light colored tC. The next day he told me a super white automatic was being shipped, and would arrive hopefully between this weekend and early next week. So now I have been waiting patiently, foaming at the mouth waiting to take the keys.
However now I'm having second thoughts about the BCP. It is a nice color, and not many cars are that color around here. Anyone that owns a BCP: how does it look after a few days of washing? Or should I just wait it out for the super white?

wow that sucks. id be ____ed too, but thats car sales for you. ummmmm, the BCP looks real nice, but if youre going to go dark, go all out and get the black. thats just my biased opinion though. i was pleasantly surprised when i saw a BCP tC on the highway for the first time, it looked a lot sharper and stood out more than the countless silver tc's ive seen.

I don't blame the sales guy, unless he promised to hold it for you. But truthfully if you had to deliberate on it, then you probably didn't want it bad enough. I think you should get the color you feel the strongest about.

And join the club, I hit the 3 month and waiting anniversary this Sunday.

I think the BCP is the ugliest color of the tC. Not too many people like it. But its your car, so as long as you are happy. I would DEFINITELY wait for a silver or White. It goes so nice with the black roof. DO NO settle for a color just because the one you want is unavailable.

Goodluck!
