I've ordered Jet Black for my MCS. While I ponder the sanity of that decision I thought I'd ask:

For the purposes of keeping the appearance of clean which color is best?

My assumption is DS, but I thought I'd ask anyway

My guess would be PS, but what do I know. I went and got IB.

I have a PS w/ Blk MCS and it does look "cleaner" than the darker colors..even if it's not washed and waxed regularly.
I'm such a maniac about washing it ...that my MCS has really never been...not clean :smile:

As a side note...the boot of this car gets dirty....quickly.
Part of the reason this car is washed as often as I do wash/wax it...is because I usually get to see the boot 1st...and it always looks a mess.
I just can't stand the sight of a dirty car.....

Peace,
D
