Which new cars look good (or bad) in white?
It seems that the 2008 and 2009 stand-out colour on many sporting models is white. But it seems to work better on some makes/models than others and is very sensitive to body shape and wheel style.
In my opinion:
GOOD:
BMW 3 series M-sport saloon or coupe
Audi S3
911 GT3
BAD:
3 series SE touring or CC
M5
Range Rover Sport
1 series (colour can't disguise what's ultimately an ugly shape)
opinions please ...

I agree with the Range Rover one...saw one in white the other day - yuck! And saw a white M5 too...surprisingly ugly! 
New facelift ST looks gorgeous in white, the S3...the standard A3 too...Volvo C30...Golf GTi...the Cupra K1...I actually think the Mercedes look amazing in white...they really suit it!

My mum's got a Volvo C30 in white and i've got to say, I think it looks damn good (if you ignore the f'ing ugly back end). She says it gets a shed load of attention as well, more than any car she's driven in a while.

Only problem is the lambo reventon only comes in one colour and it's NOT white!
I'm also a fan of the new mercedes c and e class in white. It doesn't seem to suit the new s-class though

X6 looks ace in white, as does the Q7 as long as it has the right wheels etc.
