Color advice for an 07 WRX

Alright I should be getting an 07 WRX pretty quick (ie. in the next 2 weeks or so) and I'm having a hard time deciding on color. Obviously my first choice was the WR Blue but since I'm buying pretty late into the production run it'll be pretty damn hard to find. I've eliminated some colors to help, red is a no go as is black, after owning a dark car I'm not doing it again: it's just too hard to keep clean. This leaves white, silver and dark grey. IMO silver is kind of plain and boring, everyone has a silver car. Of the available options I'm leaning towards white as I love how a white car looks with gold or bronze rims. What do you guys think?

Uhh... maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me, but urban gray and silver look exactly the same,

Anyways, go with white, it's clean, looks good with carbon fiber pieces and it's soooo JDM!

They seem to be pretty hard to tell apart at least if only one is in a picture at a time. The more I see the white though I more I like it, get a nice set of gold rims and it looks amazing. Only problem is my mom has a white subaru wagon so we'd match.

Well blue would be my first choice but it's hard as hell to find now. I phoned 7 dealerships today and all of them told me they're having a hard time finding WRXs, let alone blue WRXs. The dealer I'm gonna go to said they can't keep them in stock, the second they show up they're sold.

WR blue FTW. if they want to sell you a car bad enough they'll get you a blue one.

Black's a no go, while it looks great clean it gets dirty instantly.
