Question What do you guys think?

Please tell me what should i do with my car.? I am painting it and it's normal color is red and i was wondering ifi should paint it a red color like farrie red or if i should change the color and not keep it the original color of red. so if i paint it another color, under the hood will still be red.

farrie? Ferrari perhaps? I have never really been a fan of red, it seems to be more of a cop magnet here in Sask. It's really up to you because you'll be the one driving and looking at it everyday, not us.

Honestly, I hate looking at cars that don't have matching paint. Basically in my opinion, you can't out any markup on the car for the paint job because of the missmatch. If you are going another color, get everything done. Door jams, underhood (pull motor), hatch, etc... I'd stay with the oem color personally.

Cool i guess so. i was thinking to paint the car farrie red as well as the door jam but leave the engime part alone but paint the whole hod bottom and top. just the part where the engine goes wont be painted but i have to say the paint by the engine looks really nice for a 17 year old car. its got the original paint job on it. dude i havent seen a car this mint before because i riped the carpet out and
redid the whole interior and the floor looks like it just came out of the mazda assembly line. i lucked out and the best part of it is i bought the car for only 500 bucks canadian. and the engine has only 120000 on it the only thing that was wrong with the car was the inside was dirty and the fuel pump dident work but i replaced it for 50 bucks. so i really want to fix this baby up. wow i wondered off for a bit now you know my cars story.
