Prefer a warm tone white, myself. Looks good with black trim, interiors, blackwall tires,etc. Bright white makes me think of refridgerators.
So of course I have a bright white RX7.

Dupont used to make a paint called Imron. Not sure if I spelled that right. But whatever shade of white you choose, check into Imron, it has some very good properties for paint.

PRIMER IS NOT A COLOR!!!!!!!!!

Imron is no longer manufactured as it was before, it contained carcigenons (sp?) that caused it to be taken off the market in the 80's.

They have a newer version but I don't think it has that incredible depth that made it what it was.

My son's car was repainted with the 2000 Corvette white. It doesn't have a yellow cream cast like alot of whites (like the original Mazda white), and it's not too gray -stark looking either. Looks great on his '90 vert.
