I love it but am unsure whether to choose it again.
It looks good when,
a) It has just been cleaned.
b) It is covered in !
Anywhere in-between and it just looks grubby.Back in the game!

I’m of the same opinion as DD, although I’d swap the word good for amazing, but then again I’m bias. Brute force and ignorance, the D3 does the rest.

Black - nighmare to keep clean and shows all the fine scratches etc. but look great for 3 nanoseconds after polished.
White - you'll need shades to look at it in the summer, doesnt show the scratches but difficult to keep clean
Thats why I went for Tonga Green Duncan

It's worth it [for that nanosecond] when you see it clean!...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

Thank god it's not another Black Vs Silver debate.....
But White ala Ken with all the black contrast on looks 8)
White without all the toys on IMHO looks a little bland & MAY affect ease of re-sale (if you're bothered about that).
Black looks mega 8) when cleaned up and when properly dirty. Yes, when in between it looks grubby, but I still think it looks better as grubby black than grubby white.
Even the Buckingham Black looks quite good...
Would I go for black again? Well my last car was black and the one before was silver & I kept with the black, so there's your answer I guess.
Either way, you'll be proud of your choice as it's all down to individual tastes. But Black is best Bodsys Brake Bible

Newly polished Black with a fresh smattering of Mud is what looks best.
That's why i got these wide wheels n tyres - throws it up a treat.
Might even get some mud splatterings painted on. ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

It was not a D3, but I spotted a white RRS yeaterday, with white colour coding on the plastic, blacked out windows and chromed wheels. It did not look good to me, but obviously floated the owners boat
I do like Kens D3 in white, with the black contrasts. I also think Java looks good too.
But I bought a silver one so can't comment really. Its a D3 and looks good in any colour.

Java black might be high maintenance, but she's sooo sexy it's worth it You definately have to be the type that finds pleasure in the extra TLC required though, so if you're the lazy type, might not be for you I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?
