White may look good on the web page and when it arrived in the shop, but what's it going to look like after a couple months — weeks? — of being opened and closed with inevitably grimy fingers?
For a moment I thought about upgrading my Gen 2 cart for a full bank cart in black only. $500 for inside track members is about as good as it gets. Back to reality, its taken 4 years, but I think I finally got my old cart where I want it to be...
It's been a long time, but I'm still unreasonably salty about the fact that they released more colors about two weeks after I bought my red cart.
The blue sure is puuuuuurdy. I've seriously considered more than once whether buying a blue cart and selling my red one might be worth the money lost. Probably not.
Anyway, some people are the sort of people who can and will keep a white cart clean and looking good for years, and some people are the sort of people who could never pull off such a feat. I presume both kinds of people will self-select when choosing a cart color.
