Going on my second black metallic car and my wife's car is a dark maroon metallic.
I actually don't mind them so much. To keep a car looking it's best for a long time, regardless of color, requires frequent washing and a good layer of protection. I wash my cars around every two weeks as well, even my daughter's silver Honda.
Dark colors do require a bit of extra care to ensure you don't add any swirls to the process, but it is manageable. At least on a metallic paint, any very light swirls are really hard to see due to the metallic flake. On a solid, dark colored paint they would be really noticeable.
I correct and ceramic all of my own cars myself. It fun to do and makes the cars easier to maintain in the long run. I'd much rather polish and coat my cars every two years vs adding a sealant every six months.
