Yea, that kinda Blue does look good on an FC, but Sky Blue? I've seen a TII and a vert with that color....so ugly. I have a midnight Blue aka dark purple. I do love the color of White and Black. I might have to get my car painted Black instead of the color I have now. I like dark colors.

I was thinking of doing mine in a mercedes-esque silver. Has anyone seen that done? I've seen silver FCs before, and they look kinda tacky, but they're more of a metallic silver.

i've never seen a brown FC, but i really, really want to. i think like UPS truck brown with bronze rims would look badass, *flame suit on*. Then again, brown is my favorite color.

My favorite hands-down is Royal Maroon Metallic, paint code 3A, only offered in 86 and 87 I believe. It's not really maroon, but a really deep red. It's really rare too. Here's a picture of another member's car, a Royal Maroon 86 sport with the incredibly rare "Finish Line" aero package as well

.

And here's my Royal Maroon 86 Base. This pic really doesn't do the color justice but my camera sucks.

And this color also...



Oops, forgot to add why... because they're mine! If I had to choose, red, black, white, blue in that order but hell I's take another in any stock color I could get it!

YAARGH! BLACK PEARL! </pirate voice>

A metalic black with an interferance blue pearl coat would be cool, but my favorite color is the stock S4 metalic grey. I'm actually thinking of painting mine that grey Audi used on their TT's a couple of years back. Kinda looks like dark primer grey with a clear coat.

If you are wanting that colour buy the Jag to go with it.....


Though I am partial to the colour....my blue interior just wouldn't go

for some reason i dont like white cars but they cover up dust and dirt so well. i like my Blaze red vert, but i think when i re-paint it it going to be more of a darker red. i think that would look nice. or maybe black with super gloss

I hate all you TII guys. I love the way the car looks with the hood.0 I'm jealous. The black on the rear lights, when you purchased the car, were in good condition or did you do someting to them? For example, mine is faded and such....so what did you do? 'Yashio Factory' Pink, with black rims. I think that would be a unique color. A color that would seriously turn heads.

now that i think of it, british racing green like the lotus elises would be a pretty cool color on an FC, plus you really don't see many green FC's.
