I don't like red on the outside and want a white/black custom interior, so what is better in most respects from people's experience.
white or black
which shows dirt more
which is easier to clean (doesn't show wipe marks)
attracts the eye and shows off a kit well
doesn't show scratches as bad
Anyone with experience with cars of these colors please reply.

black is the worst colour imaginable to keep clean, and looking good. all scratches show, and its hell to polish. it looks awesome if its done right though

Black doesn't show details of a kit as well.

Why not go for half and half. You can use silver or gray - both of these are perfect for the attributes you are trying to get. Also they go well with dark or crome rims - just not machine finish.

common guys they both show dirt just about the same lol
As for washing them, white is easier to wash...it doesnt show water spots, streaks etc...
I love my black though wouldnt trade it!

You will see the deterioration on a white paint job easier than black.
I agree that surface dirt will show up more on a black car (to a point), but scratches and especially tarballs / rust specks show up bigtime on white. My paint looks perfect from 3m away but once you get up close you can see all the dodgy spots.

On a no bias scale - (my car is silver)
Black shows less dirt then white.
White is harder to clean because you notice a lot of minor flaws (ie tar and bugs)
Black/white are both tight with kits.
White stands out more then black.
Black shows scratches more significantly then white.
Personally, I'd paint my car black if i was chosing between the two. My interior is all black and its really easy to pull off any color you may want to use for detailing or whatever.

Dirt shows bigger than ****, they are hard to keep clean, They are more attractive(personal opinion) and scratches it all depends.
BLACK SUCKS IN THE SUMMER lol
