I agree with raceface, black gets dusty, and quick. My California Car Duster has come in very handy... I just use it on the roof in between washes to keep things looking pretty. Because I don't have to do the whole car, it's quick and easy. I'd be washing this baby every weekend anyway, no matter what color I chose.
That said, I realized I had a couple pics of the rear, which I mentioned before as one of the things I like most about the black.

You are correct with the California Duster, they work great. I lived by mine with the 'stang. Just don't use them when the car is warm. There's parafin wax in it and if the black paint is warm, it just smears the wax onto it. I learned that the hard way that I probably should have read the directions.

Good lookin' Club! I do like the black too...especially with the tinted windows. It looks great! I have noticed that driving around without tinted windows is like sitting in a fishbowl. I have my tint appointment set for tuesday morning.

Good tip.. I didn't think reading directions was necessary on this one, it seems pretty basic. Thanks for saving me the hassle!
