I don't. You've seen the white car - now you know why! And I think it would 
look just great in Honda mica blue.

Still looks dull!

That's fine if it's a piece of junk, but it's not appropriate with a really 
pretty car - they're better off looking clean.

Anyway, primer is best for not needing washing - I only washed the 8-door 
once (and that was to get the salt off it when it came off the boat!).

Surely not! No-one can...

Don't paint it white then! How about Honda mica blue...?
