If you get NHB be ready to head on over to autopia.org to learn how to take care of it. Nothing looks more fabulous than a swirl-free, waxed-till-it's-dripping-wet black car, BUT if you drive the freeways (rock chips), park in parking lots (door dings), take your car to the car wash 
(swirls) or just as bad let the dealer wash your car (more swirls), fuhgeddabout it.
I'm a detailing fanatic about my car and I would be having a heart attack every day if I had bought NHB waiting for the first scratch to happen, so I have ASM. So ask yourself, how much time are you willing to put into making your car stunning. PWP is one of the most beautiful colors when it is detailed correctly but it also takes the most work to look that way.

personally i like the PWP because my previous car was this
so you guys can tell why i like the white.
but mainly the reason of the parchment. i dont like the other interior colors at all. they look boring and bleak IMO... (maybe because my parents cars have dark interior gray and black)
white is very low profile and it doesnt LOOK FAST compared to other colors lik the milano red...
but if interior color isnt a big issue for you.
glacier blue would be my 2nd (my only except to the non parchment interior)
milano red as my 3rd
note: if you guys are wondering about why i dont have that car any more, some guy hit me, caused a HUGE accident, i spun out nad barrel rolled and went airborne all in 1 accident.
this is how it looks now
IMO
get the PWP

I had an 04 ABP and loved the color. It wasn't that hard to keep clean and people gave me a lot of compliments on the color. I just got an 06 NBP and it is really dirty already and its also pretty hot, but I love the way it looks when clean. I almost got the white, but they only had one with parchment interior near me, I prefer to have black interior. I didn't look at the CGP because I have seen at least 7 in my area.

I like the look of the White, and it should be cooler and easier to clean. However, I really like the black, though I know it will be a bit hotter here during the summer months in LA and will be harder to keep clean. I also feel the same about the blue and gray.
1. What is the most common TSX color?
2. Is there any difference in paint quality based on color selected?
3. The blue and gray seem relatively dark, so it seems they would both be hotter and more difficult to keep clean than the white (just like the black). Would you agree that this is this true?
Thanks for any input.

of those colors, i like PWP the best. But what do you like? My thoughts are, CGP is pretty played out, but if you like it....who cares? ABP...not that many people seem to have, cool color, not my style (i have RBP by the way).
Black is awesome, but if you're like me, you'll be washing the damn thing once a week and not be satisfied. I could not purchase a black car at this point in my life or i'd go insane.
PWP will be relatively easy to keep clean, but the thing i'd worry about is what chips will look like. My RBP has a few scratches on the bumper, which under the paint is black. I gotta say, if that happened on a white car, i'd be furius, cause i'm mad enough on a RBP where the small ones are hardly noticeable!

It's a sports sedan, get a sporty color - Milano Red.
You will also be one of the very few TSXs around in this color. I've seen one other MR in the whole Denver area.

Of the colours that you gave as your choices, I would go with PWP, it always looks great when I see it on the road.
Just to give you one other choice:
