The silver. Keep in mind that Ford's base coat is white, so on darker colors chips marks will show up a lot more.

Silver. Dark colours are nice until you have to was the car for the 20th time that month. I've always been a fan of lighter colours anyway (and don't ****ING call me racist!)

Will it still fade if I use decent car products. I wash the car myself the first month of purchase but get over it and go to a car wash after a while lol

I'm no expert wrt the colour of a car's coat of paint, but I would imagine the whites and silver to have a lower/less obvious chance of fading. Not sure the fading issue is that relevant with tongs modern cars. If you were buying a red car from the late 90's I'd be worried though.

Seriously though who doesn't want to drive a black SUV with fully tinted windows? The only reason we don't do it is because we have to take care of "business" and are on the family's time so washing the car once a day is out of the question. Besides, a white panel van with no side windows works just as well...

What ever one is available the quickest. Colour is irrelevant. I drive a baby blue Corsa.

I know this isn't on your list, but the "Copper Pulse" colour looks really nice in the metal.

Colour is not irrelevant. As this is something you are going to have to look at everyday for a few years, colour is quite important.

Not a fan of the copper colour. I looked at a few used car ads in the past and the "unique" colours(copper and lime green) dont retain value.

I wish the cheap models didnt come with those plastic mirrors and door handles. I find myself searching for a colour that compliments the plastic.

No problems. If everybody had the same tastes the world would be a boring place. :)

Agreed with the other posters that a lighter colour would be more practical.
Given the 4 choices, I personally would still go for the dark grey
