Default Diamond white or frozen white????

Having my 3 door resprayed. Would you do it the original diamond white (which is basically nicotine stained by todays whites BUT original) or a new white i.e frozen white, or any of the new bmw/audi/lambo whites. It is a really hard decision - will it devalue it much? i don't know. Help me out!

if your worried about devaluation and making money back when you sell it, keep it diamond white.

if your not too worried and will be keeping the car for a long time, spray it frozen white mate... something different out there from the norm as well!

I dont think non-diamond white will really devalue it. AT the end of the day it'll only look "cleaner" with a brighter/fresher white!

I've spent the last few weeks thinking about how cool a Frozen White S1 would look, so I'd say go for Frozen White on the 3dr!
