even worse than sunlight is...
 

A friend has this yellow light he bought from a body shop that highlights small dents and dings. In addition to showing the above, it highlights all of the crap that you can never get off of the car, and it shows the "orange peel" effect of the paint. After that you look forward to mere sunlight. I've been letting the car stay dirty for about a month so that when I finally do clean it it looks really nice :)

Buy Silver ====> No stressing here!
 

Hey Ryan,

I am a nut with my car too and feel your pain. I owned one black car and vowed never again. Don't get me wrong, black and dark blue are amazing colors, but a bitch to maintain.

My last couple of cars have been light: silver, white, pearl white, and beige metallic. These colors do not show imperfections - especially the silver and beige metallic.

Good luck,
Keith

hehe - hey, Keith! Long time, no see. Silver is my next car, no doubt about it. =)

garage. i can go about 2 to 3 weeks with my car not looking too bad. it's garaged at night, and
 

i park under ground at work which helps tremendously.

a little California car duster once a week or so, and it stays clean enough to be presentable.

i used to be really anal, but it's just not worth it. granted if it rains, chances are i'll clean it as soon as possible, but normally it stays clean enough for me to live with it.

of course i'm sure I would feel differently if i had to park it out side.
