right now im thinkin of suzuka blue or tectite grey but there would have to be a pearl coat on them
 
I wouldn't go w/ gray. So many cars are gray. The other day I saw a NICE eclipse but barely noticed it because it was gray. Unless that's what you're going for. But why be like everyone else? One of my fav colors on an Eclipse is samba green. It's an awesome color, pretty much NO ONE has it, and it stands out, even more than bright red. Prob is, you may need a body kit for it to look good. I've never seen it on a stock body. See pics below. Another Eclipse color I like is dark red. Got no pics. It's not the burgundy color. It's rare as well and I've only seen it on maybe 2 cars.

I don't know about you, but I'm having my car repainted in a few months and I am going with Supra Quicksilver.
 
Heres the blue, and heres the orange...The blue is a little more intense and almost pearl in life. The orange is definetly more intense and bright than in the pic.

its cinammon pearl red or something to that effect.
Guy down the street has one that color, a GSX. Pretty nice.

I'd go platinum silver or pewter silver, but then again I like cars that you double take on, "oh another eclipse..., wait a minute that wasn't stock!" kind of cars the supra blue will be nice as it has a similar shapre to the 2g body so it will look quite nice.

There are a lot of blue cars out here though, not very many gray ones or other metallic colors. PEwter silver quikilver or something like titanium gray would be different.
 
Yea man i think i going to paint my car Skyline Blue. I forgot the color name but it's tight.
