I love my white cars but there is an X3 in white round the corner from me and its horrible :( Some cars suit white but some just don't. X3's fall into the latter category I'm afraid.

I am just about ready to place an order, but keep having second thoughts because I have never seen one anywhere. My last 3 cars have been black and I don't think I could face 3 more years of another black car! Has anybody seen a BMW X3 (SE trim) in Alpine White?

Sorry to repeat it, but white is the new black. I've just bought a white Audi A3 (1999) and it's SWEET. Saw a white V8 Vantage in a showroom in Japan. It had darker alloys than the one above and looked even better, if that's possible.. Awesome! Sorry to repeat it, but white is the new black. I’ve just bought a white Audi A3 (1999) and it’s SWEET.

The contrast will result in a sleek & sporty look. BMW's look great in white. White looks great on cars with black trimming/grills. The contrast will result in a sleek & sporty look.

Currently got a black Q7... Haven't considered white since I sold my Mk1 Escort RS Turbo in the 80's... However, given the number of silver and black 4x4's currently on the road - a white one should stand-out. There's also something refreshing about a white car - even if its a gas-guzzling monster... Think I'm convinced now...??

(Black cars are involved in 42% more accidents than White cars at dusk.) So if the wife's involved in the decision (which she usually enforces!) then the only way you're not buying a Volvo is when the salesmen convince her it's still the safest tank on the road! (or am I unusually henpecked!) Brightly coloured cars for me - unusual colours even better. They’re all pushing white because of the safety statistics.

I had a white VW Scirocco... I didn't like it at first, not after the nice shiney (but dead) red one it replaced. It was a pain to keep clean and harder to get shiney, but I grew to love it dearly. Shame it got robbed and written off last year. I'm probably taking the plunge and buying a new Grande Punto this week... unfortunately not the Abarth displayed here, but a bog standard lowest-priced entry level 3 door 1.2 Active, which bizarrely enough, is available in White for over £1000 less than all the boring greys, blues and blacks of the other Active and Dynamic models. The only other white ones you can get are the top of the range Sporting models, which I'm not interested in. I'd like to hold out for the new VW Scirocco due out in September, but sadly that's way out of my price range... even in white. Great posting this…. look at all those lovely shiney white cars!!!!

Love the Bentley GT as well. Excellent collection of cars mate. The Artega GT looks absolutely fabulous, although if I owned that white one, I’d get high quality white rims to match the car color.
