The deep discounting of new 2011 models is also affecting the retail prices of slightly used OG9-5 models. I have located low mileage 2008 and 2009 MY 9-5s in my general area in the following colors (edited to eliminate Black and white).
Titan Gray
Snow Silver
Pepper Green
My current car is Frost Gray color so the Titan Gray may not be too much different in masking road grime - not great but OK. My son has a Silver GrandAm that he never washes, unless I pressure him, yet it never seems to look dirty from a distance. The Pepper Green is just different enough to intrigue me. I do wash my car regularly but a daily commute in excess of 100 miles results in an accumulation of road grime even between weekly washes, and I like the car to look acceptable.
Thanks,
