Which one would you pick?

another thing to considered is the care and attention you'll need to give whenever buying a black colored car. I'm not hating on black colored cars, in fact, I sometimes wish mine was... but it's often times one of those things people don't think about before buying, then having to deal with things like swirls after. Swirls happens on all color cars, but it's more apparent when it comes to black.

just a thought



Amen to that bro! Couldn't have said it better myself.


IMO black is the best looking color when it comes to reflection and gloss. No other color lives up to it because black is just black. Other colors don't show reflection like that especially silver. The downside is those damn swirl marks. I sometimes regret having black but when it's swirl free and freshly washed it looks amazing. And to keep it swirl free you'll need a buffer. I use my Porter Cable to keep it maintained. And just to let you know if you have a black car get a clear bra. Black also shows rock chips really easily. On black when you get a rock chip the chipped area is white so it stands out like a sore thumb. Black also shows pitting which silver doesn't. You'll notice thousands and thousands of little chips across the front bumper in direct sun light.

Unless you don't have OCD get black. But if things like that bothers you silver is the best choice.

By the way I'd like to add that if I were given the choice to take black again I wouldn't.

should i worry that it was from an auction?

Most lease returns especially if the dealership have lots of inventory on the lot goes to the auction.

Take the black. 2) newer year released = higher resale value 3) lower milage and best of all 1) it is black. Black cars = elegant
 
Thanks Guys! I was leaning toward the black one, but the non cpo and bought from an auction sorta concerned me. anything i should look for when i test drive/examine? what should i look for on the body that would signal repairs ( sorry, i always bought new cars...first time buying a used car...)
