Question Magnetic Black or Pikes Peak White 350Z?

Which looks better in your opinion (Magnetic Black or Pikes Peak White)?

Im going to be a future 350Z owner and I'm deciding between these two colors.


Thanks.

Black tends to look better with more things. White is nice but you have to keep it clean and only the best looks good with white imo

If I had to honestly do it all over again, white. Black is beautiful when its clean, but it hides alot of the lines in my body kit. Cleaning a black car is very rewarding I think, and paint correction is also more fun.

I would not trade my black Z for any other color, but as others have said it shows everything and takes a ton of work to keep clean. But when it IS clean....jimp

Dark cars, aka black and san marino will show dirt the most. White and silver, especially silver, will hide the dirt. I drive the san marino blue and coming from a black car, it definitely hides the dirt more, but not the best. IMO, white is the best color Z.

black, hands down. white is okay, but nothing quite like a clean black Z. it is a pain to keep clean, but once it's waxed and clean, you can stand back and look at the car and know why you picked black.

to the guy who says black cars don't stand out too much, sometimes that is a good thing. trust me though, people still look at my Z and it's black.

White looks really great and can look clean from a distance even when it is dirty. Black also looks great but does not hide dirt that well... Either way you have to keep it clean.. You wouldn't want anyone to catch you riding dirty

When the black Zed is waxed I don't think you can get a better color. I have to clean it once a week and wax every couple months but if you like to clean your car, like I do, black is freakin worth it. But if you don't have the time or motive to clean your car a lot don't get black because when my Z is dirty I feel kinda ghetto haha

Whatever you like better really. everyone is right when they say black is so hard to keep clean. But I love my PPW and it only gets washed on the weekends and still looks good through the week. Just remember black can be reallly hot in the summertimes....
