Need opinions on exterior colour

I have a mint 85 GS, only problem is that it was orginally metalic blue, the last owner wanted a silver one and repainted it silver with a fade to blue below the rubber guards (can't see on photo since it is a very light fade). Anyway I'm going to strip the car down and repaint it inside and out, I have had many first gens and this one is my keeper. I really like the Maldives Blue Matallic that the Z3 and Z4's come in and since my car was originally blue it is not to far off (for future value). The car is rust free except for a small spot inside driver door jam, even the rear wheels are clean (car has never seen winter).

Well, I would like some opinons on this colour change. I have attached a picture of my car and of the BMW.

Thanks

To add a image into a post you use vB code. To learn more about it you can read how to use it here:

The choice is ultimatly up to you. Personally I prefer a darker blue, like the montego blue the FD's had, I think thats what its called.

To get the pictures to appear in the thread, you need to use an "image command". To do this, you need to post the picture somewhere (upload it like you normally do for instance), then go to the picture (click on the link), and then when you get there, up at the top in the address bar is the pictures address. Copy that, and then go edit the post with the picture in it. When you get to where you want the picture, you need to type [ img ] paste address of picture here [ /img ]. The only difference is that you need to remove the spaces I added. Hope that helps .

PS - Another option is to go upload them in the test area thread, then use the image command to put them where you want.
