It was 131 in my car yesterday, so that's fun.

My car is black on black.

For that reason alone, I'm thinking about making it go away.

That's what I'm leaning to. Maybe silver.

I wanted white, but it's a bluegrey color, the AC is strong enough now to cool it off in a few seconds.

I haven't heard anything from my wife about a new one.

I don't have any interest in a black car. Not due to heat (although that's a small factor), but more that a black car looks like absolute TRASH unless it's spotless and clean. It shows EVERYTHING. And since we go 6+ months of the year with basically zero precipitation and a lot of dust in the air that ends up on a car, a car won't stay clean for more than 2 days. 

Silver hides dust/dirt much more effectively IMHO.

I dislike white as a vehicle color

I like black as long as it's clean

Is that what was once known as pearl white? I don't see that anymore.

White Diamond Tricoat

It wasn't quite white obviously, not a yellowish as the car shown either, just a really nice color IMHO.  We had major problems with the rims and tires.  And my wife thought it too big for the city.  Oddly enough it had a pretty firm ride, it had the MHD suspension but the adjustments didn't make much difference.  I think ride quality suffered because of the 35 profile run flat tires.
