    I like the way mine looks dirty too.. Takes dust well unlike my wife's black car that looks like shit if you don't wash it two times a day and shows every speck of dirt ..

    Personal preference... the wife told me GMG suits... kind of dark and serious. Wow you'd think there was more love there!? Still waiting to see the 20km/h extra the sales dude promised over Silver. ;)

    Mostly I really like the GMG look w/ black accessories and window tint... no practical value.

    Nope.

    My previous Tacoma was black, my current one is MGM grey, and I've been shocked how much "cleaner" the grey always looks compared to black.

    I've always thought that when fully cleaned and detailed, nothing looks sharper than black, but the grey Tacoma definitely is more forgiving when it comes to showing dirt and grime.

    I always thought the MGM is probably the most or if not one of the most beautiful color for Tacoma , I've see them on the street today after he or she pulled out of the car wash , boys!! I thought she's the beauty on the road !

    I find my MGM fairly difficult to keep clean, but I really enjoy cleaning, waxing, claying, etc my truck so it's different for me. I think it's the best looking color out though.

    if I could get another, I would get white.

    imo, the Toyota paint sucks. mine shows every ding, chip, dent, scratch, oxidation, and everything else that could happen if a mouse farted next to it. mine however, sits outside.

    dads super white (09) looks great, also sits outside, and has never even heard the word "wax". white just hides stuff better

    Super White wouldn't be a bad choice either , again it does hide scratches and dirt better than darker color
