Planet X SL Pro Carbon - White or Black ?

Am tempted to get one of the £999 SRAM Rival builds on cycle scheme,
Choice at this build is white or black. I already have a black Allez - so tempted to change to white ( Rival build is Black or white only) , then again a black one will slip in to the garage unnoticed at home !
White - looks nice on the photos and I like the way it hides the carbon weave, but I wonder if it's a bit like white cars and will go out of favour in time.
Black - fairly safe choice - but the Planet X logo is more visible on the photos I've seen ( and boy do you get a lot of Planet X logo's)
Would be looking at XL - earlist White XL is 6th April -whereas Black is in stock now.
What do people think ? (3rd choice is do nothing - walk away from my cyclescheme vouher and stick with the Allez ...can't decide at all !)

my girlfriend has the procarbon SL in white....with black laquered carbon forks.
the white is really nice - it is pearlescent. mt Stealth TT bike is native black laquered carbon, mainly cause we didn't want matching biles, but i would have gone for white otherwise0 -
White!0

Thanks for comments. White does look good so I am swaying towards this now.
I can't have any other colour apart from Black or White as this is all Planet X supply the £999 SRAM Rival builds in...so no Pink or Blue thanks.0 -
I have my madone 5.5 on ebay now (its a little small) once its gone i'll be buying the px, i'm thinking white myself... Its the new black 8)0

All the lovely carbon weave to look at.0 -
Ordered the white now but still confused ! :?0

You made the right choice.
The black just looks like a generic carbon frame.
Oh.0 -
White ends up coated in road grime and dark grey brake dust mixed with water. Makes it look used and manky, but I love the used look0

Wipe it down with a baby wipe after a dirty ride and it'll be fine.0
