It's funny because that's exactly the reason why I ordered an Ultramarine, because of the colour changing effects. That colour simply is amazing to my colourblind eyes haha.

But anyway, I'd say black. Here's why: if you plan on getting anything paint protections things like clear bra (which I recommend), it's going to be far less noticeable on the black. Plus, any discolouration of the clear bra will be obvious on the white as soon as it starts to happen.

Also, the plastic bumpers and the metal on the white have a very slightly colour difference because of the pearl paint being really hard to match since they're not painted together, but separately in different locations and then put together.
If you have major OCD like me, the colour differences, especially to colourblind people like who can notice differences in shades much easier than normal people, will be a big bother and it'll make you wish you chose the black.

Other than the fact that black gets dirty easier, there's really no other downside to the colour if your mind is set up on either black or white. Plus, it getting dirty faster will only make you take care of your car more, which isn't a bad thing at all.

Good luck.
