It's like you just got a brand new car when you're done with a wash and wax. That first drive after the last buff is pretty darned good, pretty darned good. The other 6 days of the week are, well, not quite so good.

 

Liquid black.

 

Black looks sooooo good right after you wash her.

 

once you switch to silver you will never go black... I mean back !

 

Black looks best at dawn or dusk.

 

I spend a lot time on my cars but it is so worth it. I keep up on them on a nearly daily basis.

 

This time I got a white car and it shows dirt also but it is so much easier than black, even my wife swithched from black. However, my next car will probably be black, I still think it is the nicest color.... when clean

 

Keep it clean, and drive it and night when it's a little dirty. Black looks awesome in the dark...

 

Black also looks great in the rain when all the dirt has been washed off.

 

I actually think my car gets a TON of attention since its black. Actually Basalt, but still black.

THE BAD:
I do have a PITA problem of spray detailers streaking and not wiping off well...any suggestions, I've tried almost all of them ( meguiars ultimate quick detailer is best for now) , looking for one that I can just get at the local auto store for now..

Almost like using bad window cleaner and streaking windows but on the body itself with these spray detailers...

 

I had all black cars for over 10 years. I was looking for a black/black 996 and I ended up with a silver one. I still like black but man silver is so much easier to keep clean... I mean it just doesn't show the dirt as much .

 

Traitor.

 

I'm back in black and love it although daily care is involved. Meguiars ultimate detailer works well for me too. I just need to find some wax that doesn't leave the white reside on the rubber and trim pieces.

 

There's quite a few wax products that don't leave the white residue. Only problem is that it attracts too much dust. I eventually gave up. I just wait till it rains.

 

Black 911's are great looking cars
