which color paint hides rock chips best?
 
just wondering...

I think titanium silver might. Maybe sterling grey. But I don't think sterling grey is available for the e70. Something equivalent would.

i remember on my ti silver e53, rock chips would show up as black dots...

I don't think it matters, but I think that non-metallic paints (like Alpine White) are easier to touch up when you do get rock chips.

Alpine white hides it the best.

Generally lighter colors have light undercoats and chips and defects are less obvious. Even a grey will show more that silver or white. Black of course the worst

Yeah, Alpine White is great. Titanium Silver and those champagne/beige tones are good too!
