I think that the two colors you're leaning towards are the best as far as "staying cleaner". I have tornado red and the only part that gets really dirty is the back, where the hatch is at.

I always thought white was the worst for showing dirt, the salesmen told me it was the best because it just kind of goes gray with the road dirt..........I am in Vancouver and we get a lot of rain. I like the red but worry it will fade, and I like the UG as well. So the UG is letting you down?Dragon said:

How is silver not the clear winner? There is absolutely no question whatsoever that silver shows the least dirt. I used to have a silver car and from 10+feet away it always looked clean and perfect, hard to see scratches, dents, etc.
Now I have BM, but it's pretty decent. I imagine a gloss black would be a lot worse. BM can take a bit of dirt before it actually looks dirty.

I think white and silver are the easiest to keep clean. UG doesn't hold dirt too bad. Plus the red accents on the GTI look sweet as hell w/ that dark gray!
silver is the best for not showing dirt, my friends car looks like it was just washed when i saw it today, but as i got to the car door, a little bit of dirt shown. black is the worst, because, well, i got black and im washing the car every sunday but it still constantly looks dirty.

I think you are right. We have had several silver cars as well, but quite frankly are tired of VW silver. I wish more people would vote - only 12 out of 102 hits.............jgo said:
So, would you like to start a GTI sharing program? I take yours, you take mine. ;DDragon said:
Its that whole grass is always greener on the other side thing.My CW fast stays clean 'looking' longer than my other gray and red cars I have had, which came as a surprise. Maybe I'm just biased now for loving my car no matter what, but it does seem cleaner from a distance even when it is dirty.
