I think white really brings out the color of the lamps (red tails and orange turn signals). It's also safer because you can be easier seen at night (as opposed to black) and it wont absorb as much heat from direct sunlight. It's also not an attention whore color for thieves, racers, and cops, as caribbean/skyline/civicSI blue or ITR yellow is. If not white, I recommend a pretty basic color, because any basic color would look nice if the paint job is very glossy and you slap a couple clear coats on it.

In short, I recommend white.

EDIT: If you like the attention and like the show car kind of attention, then by all means, disregard my boring and practical opinion.
