depends on the car...
if we're talking about the 2001 BMW M3 i'd either go with yellow or dark metallic blue...
i don't mind white cars otherwise

I have a Black Chevy Extended cab truck.I love it, but you can wash it one evening, and in the morning the dust in the air has settled on it!

Any shade of blue from the lightest to the darkest I love.

Red (it is a known fact!) attracts THE MAN.Now you know why they call them bulls! No B.S.,Red cars get pulled over more than any other color.

The color white also gets dirty quickly.I work for GM in the paint department,we have a saying "White covers a multitude of sins".If it's a small speck of dirt in the paint,usually the paint inspector will pass it.Black or dark Blue, forget it,he'll write it up for repair every time.White covers metal scratches,dirt,smudges,even small dings better than any other color.

The most ridiculous thing I see on the streets are white limousines.Black,or Dark blue, or a metallic "Champagne" would be a better choice.I hate white limo's.To my way of thinking, limo's should be very,very dark.The color could mean death.The color definitely means power.

I guess limo owners want white, because it hides body and paint imperfections.White limo's suck.
