Florida! That's exactly what I had in mind when I posted my original reply
to this. Having lived most of my life in South Florida I know what the
"Sunshine State" does to black cars. We used to chuckle at the "snowbirds"
moving down there with their black (or other very dark colored) cars. Yup,
most of the hospitals had "burn wards" set up just for owners of black cars!
:) I also noticed a perponderance of black cars on used car lots there.

The more I think about it the more I'm leaning towards the beige, mmmmm the
beige it is. Several members have brought up the black on black and the
Florida sun, seeing how there will be plenty of hot days in the 80s all
through the winter :-) I tend to agree, and the black & beige will look real
good. Sorry to rub this 80 degree weather thing on all of you who parked
your cars for the winter, but just think off all the work you can get done
(really mean it).
