    I love black...but man, such a pain!

    Black looks gorgeous when it is freshly washed. I find myself cleaning it, then putting it in the garage not wanting to drive it because it will be dusty/dirty in about 5 minutes. My next car is going to be white or silver! haha. Anyone else like me with a black car?
