Silver because the color lasts and does not fade as much as solid colors. I have a 2003 titanium silver X5 and the paint still looks really good. I've seen many black x5s that look old and worn out and white x5s that look 'stained' and old. So in terms of resale value, silver wins hands down. Black won't hide scratches or blemishes and white will will look dull and 'stained' over time.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Moreover, silver has that mirror appearance that reflects colors from surrounding in a very cool way.

Though not as intense of a color change as iridium silver, the palladium silver still has that property and is a nice color to have.
