An interesting story on Yahoo that white cars were the leading seller last year for the first time, something many of us Alpine White lovers have known for years!

Platinum bronze metallic, automatic, cold weather package, fold down rear seats, iPod adapter

I think AW E60s look awesome. There are some great looking modded AW E60s on this forum as well. But I just can't get away from how mean a black car looks...when it's clean. =)
