For me the main factor is not being able to wash it every week!  When I first got my ED30 I washed it ever week (sometimes more) ad polished / waxed it every month.  Now I live in a flat, and don't have the same access - so have to go to my mums once a month to clean it!

Theres also the yellow spots people have been moaning about - as well as tar spots which are far more obvious on white than anything else.

Plus - is white a fad?  It's the colour of the moment... but will it die off again like it did years ago?!

I think it looks amazing - but I'd never own one!

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

I was just going to say the same, black is much harder to clean than white. White isnt as hard as people think to keep clean.
