Nortic Green or Montego Blue?

Repainting my car in 2 years or so and i'm starting to weigh my options. With both colors i don't have to repaint the engine bay. What do you think looks better? RX8 Green or Montego "green"?

If i get the money together i'll prolly paint my car Silverstone or Pearl White.

How about none of the above? Silver is way too common. White FD's kick ***, but if I was completely changing the color, I'd go like Royal Sapphire Blue, or black.

There's a new blue on the 2007 RX-8s that looks good. I think they've had the same on Miatas.
