Is white just a fad?
Im looking at a car.
Now "White" seems to be the new colour of choice.
Last year it seemed to be ST Orange was the choice to respray in.
I've always liked black but recently had a pot noodle horn for a white car.
Whatever i buy would have to be for at least 3 years.
At the end of that 3 years, I'm guessing the "OMG WHITE" fad would have died.
Anyway.
In the style of MJ.
Black. Or White.

Black imo. Looks amazing when it's clean. White is nice but it'll be harder to sell as well.

Ive always liked white cars and reckon I always will do, but yeah recently theyre the IN colour. Just means theres gonna be loads of cheaper white high spec cars when I can afford them later in life which cant be a bad thing

Insurance is too much.
I really like the Z4 Coupe but it has only one engine option:
3.0l so insurance is a bit mad for me : £1600.
Looking at one that is £19500, Automatic 3.0l.
35ish mpg too 
But found one slightly more expensive that is White.
Love it in white but think its just like how i liked ST Orange last year and nearly resprayed my 106 in it.
Glad i didnt as it seemed to have caught on and killed itself off as a colour.
The M4 is a Z4 coupe with a 3.2l engine.
Mad Spec. But retard expensive to run and insure.

white does look awesome but its just a phase. it will die out in the next few years so a white car will loose more money.
