What's the shiniest color car out there?

So... What color would be considered the "Shiniest" when all washed/waxed?

Doesnt have to be civic colors... I just want to know what color in general gets the most attention after being waxed?

mine is pretty shiny, but that is just my opinion - i'm sure others think differently. I have the metallica magnesium. check out my ride for pictures or http://www.sounddomain.com/id/matrix311 for pics of it.

i have a silver car... but red gets my vote. i would say black, but you can see every little scratch, swirl marks, dust, etc... easy.

The darker the shinier, in terms of how well you can see reflections in it. Blue, black, and green are probably the best.

I would say any bright red. My 94 civic was Milano red and it looked very shiny when it was washed,glazed and waxed.

black will definately have the most reflection. The darker, the more it will reflect, but also the darker, the easier it is to see dust and swirl marks, so never ever dust a dark colored car if it isnt wet unless u want lots of SWIRLIES

the M3 blue is gorgeous, but of the civic colors i would have to go with red, even though my car is black. black just shows too darn much.
