I just found my favorite iPhone color that was never made...

The problem with black is all the scuffing and scratches show up too much. For those who go naked, it would really be best to have a silver back and a black front. Mine will be in a case anyway. And I want the front to be black.

Just the drawbacks of going naked for any color scheme, hell I'm sure even the gold would show a scuff or scratch pretty easily ... IMO I think the should offer this scheme up too ... My iPhone 5 slate gray was flawless when I sold it (minus a few lightning port scuffs from plugging in)

That's why a high quality plastic shell like the 5C would be ideal to get a color like this. I like this black in particular because it's not a glossy black which would make more prone for those scuffs and scratches.
