Default New Paint job... White or Black?

This summer while I'm getting some body work done to my eg hatch, I plan on getting a new paint job. My old faded dark blue has to go.

I've narrowed my choices to either black or Championship white, and cannot decide from there.

Which would look nice and clean and better IYO.

Black always looks great as long as you keep it clean. White will look good even if it's a little dirty. My $0.02
