I almost painted my car B5 blue but ended up painting it the original V2 Torred and kept the factory white interior.I love the purple with whte int. and stripe combo.A white or colored interior will make it stand out somewhat from all the boring black interiors out there.  :stirpot: How about the new B5 blue with blue interior-another combo I really like!Any paint supplier should have the new formulas by now.

B5,C7,V2 all are metallic though it is really fine and doesn`t stand out too much

I think with some colors, a vynil top breaks it up a little and makes it look better. For example: Gun metal grey on a 71, black top.

Guys, i apologize for not keeping my post updated. So many of them that i lose track real easy. I did choose a color, and after shooting the interior and engine bay, i am amzed at how good the color looks. :droolingbounce: I went with Sassy grass, and i love it. I had my tintable raptor mixed up with the color and even shot the trunk. color is a little light with the raptor , but the rest looks great. I am still going to go with a black vinyl top, and probably the white interior. There are no cars around my area like this, so it definently should be noticed. :bigsmile:

Coming from someone who owned a limelight 'Cuda, you made a nice choice. Lotta pop in that color for sure   :2thumbs:
