well then you should paint it pink... that will stand out.

Come on... why ask a internet forum? You don't know what colors you like?

Look for DuPont Hot Hues Paints they have many colors. We painter our Autox RX7 Hot Hues Black Cherry. Sometimes looks dark red, sometimes black, sometimes even a hazy gray. Of course the paint isn't cheap, $500 or more per gallon.

You can see our car here: http://gallery.eregion.org/main.php?...d=19&g2_page=2

And this is what we started with: http://gallery.eregion.org/main.php?g2_itemId=992

Go to the shop who is painting your car and ask to borrow the book of samples. Look at the colours indoors and narrow down to a bunch that you like. Then bring them outside into the sunlight and choose your favourite.

Metallic pink would be awesome. Get some of those teddy bear wheels and a white interior.
