If you buy a color just because it shows chips less, you might end up regretting your decision and kicking yourself for not getting what you wanted. Don't ever settle for any color than you really want.

Since you are down to those two colors, as much as Whiteout is outplayed, I'd still vote over Asphalt. As I have said before, Asphalt is a good color, but I don't think it's suited for the shapes and image of this car. Now, that similar shade I think looks great on a car like the new Corvette C7, as it just works very well. Whiteout flows on this car extremely well, as white does on the LFA and IS-F. Granted those are Toyota based paints but even the 2000GT (similar lines) fits very well in white.

My only gripe is white has been overused due to the euro scene explosion, and the younger generation has eaten it up. Just my opinion.
Shoulda read the post date
