Seriously though, I'm painting my car Corvette-Millinium yellow in a couple of years.

word, i wanna repaint mine red, but i want Torch Red like the Z06's
 
A smoke grey would look nice IMO. That or repaint it a very glossy Black.
 
Someday i want to repaint it hunter-green (like those REALLY dark pearl green mustangs) with a dark pearl graphite on the front section that
modestly clouds into the green.

Something that you don't just go.. HEY LOOK AT ME, but a paint job you can just respect and say.. niiiiice. :)

That stuff is expensive. I don't mean the cheap stuff you can get at Auto Zone or Wal-Mart now either, I mean at a body shop that stuff is upwards of $500 a quart! I saw a Lambo at a car show once that took first place for its paint, and it was that gold-to-yellow-to-orange shifting paint, he said it was a $10,000+ paint job.


*... Oh yeah, go with blue. ;)*
 
man, all you had to put was... and why? at the end of your question and i would have thought for sure that Rocky V had come back from the dead.

oh, i would paint my the factory mitsubishi charcoal grey like larry's and ed's car. it's the best looking color in my opinion.
 
Well I'm about to get my car back from the transmission shop in a week or 2 and I"m going to get a new paint job.....right now my car is stock white.....and was wondering if I should keep it white or if theres any other color you guys would go with....I searched through other "what color should I paint my car" threads already almost all of them don't have pics to go along with their suggestion so yea let me hear what you have to say and please try to add a pic with it, thanks in advance......
 
mine was white and instead of going through the trouble of painting all the door jams and under the hood, I kept the white and painted minbe white with a blue pearl.
 
looks pretty good so under sun light you can see the slight hint of blue pearl in it right? yea I might just keep it white if painting the door jamb and under the hood is a huge hassle.....anybody with any other suggestion?
 
Your in the same situation I am in. Car in tranny shop, going to paint it when it gets out. My car is black right now, but I am going to have it painted the stock silver on 1G Talons. Im going the cheap way. I already have the hood, bumper, soon to be fenders, doors, rear bumper, and trunk lid. Then I am going to buy the paint and go to a shop and have them spray what ever is left black. Going to be real cheap. Under around 300$ for a nice job.
 
Paint it either

Blue, Purple, Pink, neon yellow, ..... heck, just make it a rainbow car..

Just playin'.....

I say paint it the Escalade White.. I like that color..
 
I like to think that White R34's with Black wheels look sick as hell...
 
Zurich White Pearl Metallic, from the 3000GT, very sexy

My car was going to be that color, but didint want the hassle of going to bare metal on the whole car, so im going Ferrari red :thumb:
