You could always shoot the Lemon twist basecoat & finish with a brighter tinted clearcoat, just to add depth & still keep the original colour for easier blending/repairs down the track.

I own a Y1 Challenger and keep track of cars as a reference.
Found a 70 survivor Y1 Challenger w original paint.
Still pops in my opinion after all these years.
I hope my repaint on my car will look this good!

Yes, these examples look great, not the faded I referenced.
