Default Best Color to get for 2012 Camry SE

Not sure on what color to get, not getting black for sure since I've had 2 black cars before and the swirls and scratches can easily be seen in those.

Is white a good color to get? Hard to take care of like black?

Another option I am considering is red. I don't know.

i always pick up the silver color its not to hard to keep it up , black and red are the hardest colors to take good care of them , the 2012 Camry SE V6 looks very nice on magnetic gray metallic , the 4 cyl looks nice on classic silver metallic , again i'm a silver lover . pick a good dealer ship and compare them on real life , the dealer where i work we have one of each color just different models .

I like silver, it can be easily seen in the dark so it would lessen the accident.

According to a study by Aukland University, silver is the safest color, but in general, lighter and brighter colors are safest. I grew up in an area where morning and evening fog was common and was told that silver was dangerous because it blended into the fog, so who knows? My wife likes white cars, so our new Camry is white and the Corolla we had for 10 years was white. White seems easy to care for and seems to look good through the usual wear and tear. It works well to deflect the heat from the AZ sun, and it never faded. I think white is a pretty good choice.

White colors seem to be prone to dirt and those dirk can be seen easily... black is the safest when it comes to dirt issue, the safest colors are colors seen in the dark but not irritating in the eye during light.

I've owned a dark blue pickup, dark green '93 Camry, white Sienna minivan, gray/silver Odyssey. I just purchased an LE in magnetic gray. When clean, you can't beat the sharp/elegant look of dark-colored vehicles. When dirty, you can't beat the concealing nature of grays/silvers/light blues/golds/etc. White looks good nearly all the time, but, like silver there seems to be a billion of them out there. If you can wash the exterior on a regular basis, I'd go with darker color. If not, go light.
