Did you forget something there, DV??
Having owned two black cars, a Cobra(which was a DV creation, solid black, no stripes), and a '65 Mustang show car(which won it's class at the Charlotte Mustang Nationals), I think it's the best and worst all in one. NOTHING looks better than a car painted black....done right. BUT, nothing is more work to keep it looking good, either.
Everyone should own one black car in their life, just to understand. You will prolly either have more, or, never, ever, have another!
Let the debate rage on...
