Default Black or red?

I really can't decide.

Everyone goes for black cars.
Black cars look awesome when clean.
Black cars are subtle.
Black cars cost more, but have better resale value.

I like red cars, they are different.
Red cars also look awesome when clean, and don't look dirty as quickly.
Red cars are much more in your face.
Red cars are cheaper, resale value suffers. Costs £500 less and has 4000 less miles.

black shows scratches and swirls much more, red tends to fade/ look dull if not looked after

not the best of colours because of whats been said, red fades too easy and black shows up all scratches and swirls but black looks immense when cleanded properly.
