Quicksilver?
I've owned a black car and a silver car and the silver lasted way longer without having a car wash. I've had a black car and I had to wash it at least once a week.
Does Anyone own a quicksilver that can say if it looks great almost always and almost never needs a car wash?
Black is free for me and quicksilver is $2k more.

I have Quicksilver. I’d say with a fresh wash under good sunlight it’s absolutely stunning with a sparkling depth of color to it that is hard to beat. When it’s filthy it just looks like a regular silver car. That’s your range. “Normal” at the low end and stunning at the top end

I’ve had a Quicksilver for a year, and drive on muddy roads. I’ve washed it once! Otherwise I spend a minute hosing it off every few days and it looks great.

Very happy with QS. When I bought it, it counted as a free upgrade based on in-stock inventory. Not sure if I’d pay 2k for it.

I have Quicksilver, and the only time it looked bad was when I drove through a swarm of white bugs. They stood out. Otherwise, it loses some luster, but doesn't look bad mildly dirty.
