White , your car is easier for others to see, safer?, and cooler. And IMHO, doesn't stand out for law enforcement. Yes, you will wash it more. GM is harder to see, especially in the twilight hours, and you still get to was it.

I love the way pw looks on a nismo but leaves to be desired on the regular Z. So on a sport pkg Z I would do and did GM. Nismo= pw

Actually, get a PW, it'll help GM's maintain their rarity!

You sound like me..."You crashed your 40th? Sorry to hear that...but not too sorry since that is one less!"

Hey Jay just looked at your porfolio. Nice work. If you're ever in Minneapolis drop me a line and I'll put some cash in your pocket.

I've never understood the love affair people have with white. I'd take any color over white except maybe a green, pink, brown, or purple.

I would have bought a PG Z if I could have received the same $7400 discount that I got on BS.

GM is close to PG so I am partial to it.

My former car was dark and getting inside on a sunny day stank. With the light color and seats, it just doesn't matter anymore. Something to consider and a nod towards PW.

Either color looks good. Good luck.

Gunmetal and red calipers look nice on them. The 2013 sports have them and look nice.
