    and the Porsche GT1
    Yeah, that GT1 Is silver. I think only classic cars look good in white .. even then there are far better colours.

    White is a bitch to keep clean

    Used to have a white Ford and the BIG advantage was on the motorway , lights on and EVERYOEN assumes you're a cop car and gets out of your way. Could make Manchester in 2 hours

    Latest car for daughter is white and it makes it look slab sided compared to the other greedn and red on'es I've seeen. But it was cheap So she's stuck with it !! She's thinking of making it into a "dalmation"

    I woudlnt' chose white as a car colour again.

    What model is that Matra? Shame Ford spoils you in Europe with all the good models.

    BTW-Yeah, the GT1 is silver, I couldn't find a good pic of the GT1 in white, so you'll just have to do with that.

    For sure the White Murcie and the white GT2 are the finest things i ever saw in white (car wise that it)

    the japanese F50 is kinda lame, looks like a tooth
    I am easily satisfied with the very best.

    The only one I'm in love with is that Elise, but without the stripes it would look unfinished. And it's not really true white, more of an off-white. (Yes, that little of a change can make a big difference in the look of the car, IMO)

    Everything else is....meh.

    So it looks like Porsche seem to be the ones who can pull off white reasonably well...
    found another ferrari one, it definitely depends upon the model.

    New Golf GTI..

    White 928.



    Pontiac GTO

    That wasnt' the Ford I was talking about - back then it was a :whisper: Ford Orion

    The picture is of a Quantum Coupe - a British kit car using Fiesta XR2 or Turbo as donor. In a shell 2/3 the weight makes it 'niiiiiice'

    I dunno if I like the exotic cars in white. Ferraris sure don't look good in white considering red is their signature colour. Although the Ford GT in white isn't bad I kinda like it.

    Agreed. The porsche 911 is the ONLY car that looks good in every color!
