Black gets very hot in the sun and even when driving takes extra much power for air conditioning.
Silver and white don't have that problem.
Now here is a good one. A study was made recently and it was found that silver cars have the least number of accidents. Possibly because of the visibility factor.
In fact now that I think of it, my silver Chrysler, which I have owned for 19 years, has never been in an accident (I don't count a hail storm that put dents all over the roof, hood and trunk. Hail doesn't care what color the car is).

Silver. My favorite cars have always been silver. I live in NY state, so car paint takes a real pounding here with the winter salting. White is the least durable, then black, but silver is almost indestructible. It's so easy to keep clean, almost never needs washing and still shines. As for accenting, graphics, etc..: silver matches well with pretty much any color scheme (especially black and red). Black goes well with graphics, too though you are limited a bit more. White is hard to spruce up, because it always looks blank. Silver is the way to go.
By the way, most fleet vehicles are white because it's a stock color, so it's easier to find a leftover cheap truck or car for your fleet in white. Not because it hides dirt.

I have a silver Corvette. Looks good and shows very little dirt. I have owned a black car. They look great when clean and waxed. The problem is they do not remain clean. I think some cars look OK in white, but white really does not highlight the curves on most autos. On the plus side, white is easy to match if you have an accident.

Take into consideration your location and driving condition, and if you're planning on keeping it forever, or trading it in in a few years. If you live in a dusty area, silver will not show the dirt as fast as black. If you live in a hot area, white will keep you cooler than black, and the opposite if you live in cold a climate. Black is sharp, IF you keep it clean and waxed. Touch up is easier, but also a nicer attraction for car thieves. For the best average, I'd say go with the Silver.

Ok here is some advice you can use
White reflects the sun and the inside of the car will be cooler in the summer( depending on where you live)
Black hides the dirt better but it gets hot inside
My advice is silver it hides the dirt, stays mostly cool in the sumer and is a good looking car
hope this settles the mater

Silver. White Cars get dirty quicker and I generally don't like them. You wouldn't believe it but black cars do too. They also show off scratches more easily. I have had both and I will never get either again. I guess silver is the lesser of the 2 evils. But I would get like a blue or a green or a campaign.

look the black cars get really hot, cuz black attracts more heat.
white is best for a cooler car but you can see every spec of dirt that hits it and you dont wanna be constantly washing your car do you? Get the silver. It's just the better of the colors overall.

There are so many silver cars on the roads today, it's boring. Also silver isn't very visible in inclement weather. Black is nice looking but hot in the sun. White is very classy but always dirty. Why don't you go with another color, my favorite is red. Red cars are so cheerful looking.

personally I had cars with all those colors, and the only reason I would say to buy one that is silver is because its the easiest to keep clean. when a car that is white or black gets a little dirty it shows on the car, on the other hand on silver its harder to see.

Black: I have had bad experiences with trying to clean white cars; they generally get dirty way too easily. Silver has become too commonplace, and really, there's nothing like a sleek, new, black car!
Enjoy your new vehicle! I wish you the best of all!
