My GT is Jet Black and it's the worst color ever to keep looking good. Never again. EVER. It constantly stains, swirls, etc. However, Black Sapphire Metallic is a breeze. I'll get that color all day.

I'm the opposite. Jet Black looks great and Sapphire is a mess. Just looks like a dusty car when it's freshly detailed. I generally dislike metallic paint though and don't mind the extra effort to maintain solid paint. Or didn't before I had a kid to chase around.
