Blacks the way to go, I agree a bit harder to take care of, but the end finish is nothing compared to any other color, especially at night. Closest one to black would be the darker colors with pearl in the paint, like the old blues that BMW use to make. In the end it's personal preference, everyone has there favorite color.
