I like white better personally. White may be hard to clean, but black shows flaws alot more than white. So over time, the black car will show more swirl marks, scratches and dents. At the end of the day, you can wash off dirt and grime, you cant wash of swirl marks, scratches and dents.

If your getting a high sport kit, white. If your leaving it looking kinda stock, black.

Black is the sexier by farrrr! But white is a hell of a lot easier to clean. && with tan interior..hmmm I'd get it white bcuz I just think black with tan interior looks weird. But it's your car & you gotta think about how often you want to be detailing the black to keep it sexy & clean. I clean mine at least one time a week & detail it at least once a week when warmer weather rolls around. You most def gotta be dedicated to a black car lol

I forgot to add something. If you don't constantly take care of black, it will start to fade after a few years.
