White is not hard to keep clean at all! There's a popular misconception that white is more difficult to keep clean but it's really one of the easiest of all colors to keep clean...

It's amazing to me how many people avoid a white car because they think they're hard to keep clean (actually the same reason I don't get black cars...)
+1 black tends to show swirl marks also, i love white but the best color to hide dust, dirt, scuffs, etc. is silver, gray metallic

Titanium silver is by far the most lenient color for maintenance , especially swirl marks, solid dark colors are the worst, but you can see swirls in solid white as well , metallic helps to hide them.......... IMHO.

Since you're not asking what car you like, I'll guess white then...
