Choose a colour

What colour would you like to see a Starion? I've always liked yellow or the blue that's similar to the modern XR6 (often seen on widebodies in the US), but they've been done.

So I've been thinking...
-gun metal grey
-burnt orange (not the full on bright orange like on XR6s) with a bit of a pearl (seen on some new Toyotas)
-keeping it white but maybe some pearl

Okay, so no idea really. Anyone care to make suggestions or do a Photochop?

Put up a picture of your car to be photoshopped.

I'll get up some photoshops I did with burnt orange and gun-metal grey I did for my husbands paint ideas.

The burnt orange he's going for is the Pontiac G6 copper.

This is my fav colour starion, not to sure if it would suit a narrow body though.

I personally am a bi fan of the Chrysler Charger of the early 70's. They had some reat colours in their day - vitamin c, hot mustard, magenta, lemon twist, mercury silver, plum crazy and with the r/t blackouts looked good. I have thought about chaning the colour of my widebody to vitamin c but will most likely leave it black. Those who can photo chop I would love to see that yellow widebody chaned to black with those rims as is.

A white JD.

Alspos - the blue and the grey ones are hot! :D And several years ago, when purple was a favourite of mine, I would've done the 'pink' staz (not now thankfully. And I like the orange with the two stripes painted on earlier.

Does anything like the chopped rear skirt exist, it looks good.

Gah, still can't make up my mind...more please guys :)

I've been noticing a lot of gun metal grey cars lately. I think they look hot. Most people tend to disagree. Weird. Okay, this colour hasn't necessarily got the big 'wow' factor, but a nicely done car in this colour looks great.

More ideas guys, keep 'em coming :)
