depends, Black is great for looks. To me you can see scratches in it easier. My next paint will be the one that has the biggest flakes in it.
Look at the Crimson Red hard to see a blemish in it. The black Pearl is close to that.

color choice
I am mtfree's wife and I am concerned about the resale of a Street Glide in Pewter. I saw it in black and had the "WOW" factor. But... my husband likes the Pewter Pearl because it is sooooo understated. I love how the Vivid Black shows off the chrome. But it is his bike and so he should get to pick out the color and he can get the Pewter quicker, he would have order the Vivid black. We bought our first Harley (a Super Glide) in July and are already trading for the Street Glide, I want us to love this bike for a long time.

"My wife wants it in Vivid Black."
I see this as a no-brainer. If Mama wants a black one, you had better get a black one!!!!
Seriously, I think the black pearl is one of the nicest looking colors offered by HD.
