My car came with a white top.  Right now it has a shot black one.  Woudl you go White or black if you had to replace it?  The car is blue with titanium ground effects.

V-6 is for real drivers. Go buy a Jetta if you want gas mileage and a chicks car. Buy a V-8 Mustang if you have no driving ability and need the extra horsepower to compensate and feel like you''''''''re fast.

Black will be easier to maintain, but I just dont like the look of white top for some reason. If the car is always garaged, a white top may not be too bad.

Go with the black top.

Go black I had a white top on my classic hard to keep up and she's  garaged most of the time.  If your not worried about being original .  I like mine better now that it is black.

Go Black, I had a white top on mine when I got it that was shot and had a black one put on and it looks much better. Like they say once you go Black you never go back !

I suggest black as well.  Look at other cars in your area and see how they fared.  When my mother was looking for a vert, she noticed the tan or white ones showed signs of mildew and wear.

The white will look a million times better with your blue. However, the black will wear and remain better looking in the long run. When I ordered my car ,I originally went with the tan top and the beige leather interior. A friend of mine told me that I should change both to black asap. After I listened to him I called the dealer and swapped the option. As much as I love the look of the lighter interior, I now know dark charcoal was the correct choice.

White tops are a pain to keep clean.
