Sure I would, but then my 'new' Focus Titanium X is in Frozen White.

Depends on the white. Flat white (seen on many German rep mobiles) is pov. spec and doesn't look all that great.

Pearescent white is usually an expensive option and does look nice. But it's also very expensive to repair

Only colour I wanted a CRZ in was white, but that’s cod it’s pearl so the tone changes actually show the shapes and form - unlike the black ones which look like a van.

I had 1 white car as far as I can recall. In the 80’s when it was cool.

To be fair BMWs actually look OK in white - pretty much any other car I'd avoid in white :s

Had some reservations before getting my A5 in white. I like it - doesn't look poverty.

I like white, it takes a special kind of special to think the colour of a car makes a lesser car.

Not all colours are the same when it comes to personal preference, some hate black because it's difficult to keep clean. I wouldn't buy a pink, or "primer" car either. It's not about being special, it's about not feeling like throwing up when looking at it.

Same as the interiors - don't underestimate how annoying a light grey or beige interior gets until you've had one for a few months...

No white cars look like the base model has just rolled out of the factory.

I love that deep green Audi are doing.....

My Megane rs250 is in Glacier White and I think it's one of the better looking colours. Darker cars I've owned tend to look dirty a lot faster.

I prefer my white car for the way it stays clean up until the next time you drive it, compared to my black one which only seemed to stay clean until the next time you looked at it. Generally I like blue cars but as my current car was only produced in red, white or black (maybe grey too, can't remember), I wasn't fussy with which one I got.

My ST225 looks great in ice white and it's also a very rare colour for the car.

Also worth noting that primer grey is the new white. Doesn't make white any better though.

My mate had a white M2 and it was only really in the evening with some shadows that it looked good and complimented the lines of the car. All other tines it just looked OK/bland. You can get some great colours on them, white isn't one if them. On other cars white can work well, on a 1 series it doesn't IMO

Much cheaper to just use primer

Pure White Golf R here , didn’t want any other colour.

White works on some cars and not on others.

Ever been worried about it grabbing vandal attention?
