best dark color?

[jvcn]

Just for my info:



What is the consensus regarding the best dark color from the standpoint of ease of care and minimal swirling?



My impression is that black and red can be a PITA to keep in good condition.



My metallic gold/beige seems to hide swirls pretty well.



Thx.

Anything metallic will hide blemishes better, because the light refracts off the flakes in the paint.

the dark metallic grey used by mazda, i think it is called dark titanium grey. my friend has it on his 3s and i had the hardest time finding any scratches and keeping my eyes focused on those scratches.
