I'm actually considering this color or YMB with silverstone leather, not sure what to do.
This statement is perpetuated a lot, but I disagree with it. You should see my AW 335i right now. It is not looking clean nor is it glowing under any lighting conditions. LOL! I haven't washed it since December 27th. AW/MW shows more dirt than darker colors IMHO.

SO won't be hard to keep clean, but because it's a darker paint, making sure to care for it and keep swirls to a minimum will/should be the focus.
Nothing shows more dirt than black and gray
