I personally prefer Silver because it is metallic colour. Easy to maintain.

The survey findings of more than 60% cars to be white is wrong. By that statistic all 7 out of 10 cars that one sees would be White.

Atleast in my part of the world thats not true.

Hi Guys,

I have a very important question to you that should be clarified.

I understood that WHITE colour is one of the best colour for car. What is the durability of the WHITE colour ? I am planning to purchase Hyundai i20 Sportz in WHITE colour. I know i20 looks gorgeous in WHITE. But I am quite confused seeing some posting at Carwale and Team BHP site that WHITE colour is prone to sun light in comparison to Silver and others. Even sometimes due to heat of engine the WHITE colour is changing to yellowish with patches.

Please post your comment.
