Does your Arctic White get more noticeably creamy/yellow-y with time?

If it left out all the time it wil get more weathering and exposure to the elephants.

K-A, have you ever noticed a bunch of elephants hanging around your car? Elephants have been known to hang around Euro Lux cars, drinking a lot of strong coffee, and smoking Gitanes. Perhaps the yellowing is from second hand smoke from all of the coffee-drinking-smoking-elephants that you expose your car to? Personally, I never expose any vehicle to the elephants.
