NightHawk Black Pearl. My car was Flamenco Black Pearl but I painted it NightHawk Black Pearl. It has a lot more pearls and looks shinier.

I own one but never recommend it to anyone since is a Pain in the A** to keep clean
and see every single scratch, no matter how cautious you maintain it.

Sometimes I do miss my old R because just u don't see all the damm hairline scratches.

yea i agree....both colors are nice but i'd stay away from any dark colors b/c you can notice all the scratches and ****.

just my opinion.

go with a light color.

If your going to do a color change why something non oem, yet still clean. Like Viper grey, thunder greymetallic(OEM Rare) Something along those lines. If i ever do a color change(which i probabaly won't) i would paint mine a nice metallic grey color.

If your stuck between these two I like CW myself, never owned a black car, but everyone that has one complains of heat, fading, and swirls I lovemy Frost white because even when it's dirty is still shines nice and bright. My girlfriend has a black car, and even after it's washed you can still see all the imperfections.
