Painting the 7 need your opinion...
JD's old metalic burgandy RX was one of the hansomest i've seen. If you really want a purple opr orange RX7, fine, but I think these cars look best in more classic colors. Midnight blue would look pretty good too.

yea they r sooooo fun to drive. if u have never driven one i suggest u go to a car lot and act interested and go for a test drive (bring the wife so the dealer cant come with u for the test drive. he he) it like ur in a go kart. my sisters has an intake and exhaust. too bad she is selling it cause a paint shop fucked the paint up and no the whole car need paint. $12000cdn for a paint job. dont want no hack job bs. gonna miss that car.

Good luck getting the color codes for the Red #2 Saleen car. I hear they won't give that one out at all. Oh yea, it's not necessarily red, it's also has an orange tint to it depending on how the light hits it.

I agree the dark red looks really nice, John Duff (I think that was his name, I may be mistaken) who used to work at PFS years ago did his like that I think it came out great....one of those two is also similar to the Millen RX-7 pictured here...I would love to do the same but at this point can't justify $5k for a paint job! Cheers

Satin black is the color i want to paint it but RX7WHAT doesnt want me to do to the resale value of the car in that color .so i looked for diff colors and those colors are what you see in the first page...but its my car and i dont plan on selling it ever so satin black with a flatener in the clear it will be...
Come on we all cant have shinny cars and i think it will look mean
