I go for Silver. Or go for beige color to match your interior.

i say silver. its subtle and not racey like most bright colors and its a very easy color to keep a clean look and not have to spend alot of moeny to make look good. like silver and black for example or silver and bronze. personally id go black. i love black

well i could keep it black.. say like a metallic black or jet black and make it really glossy. or get a shiny lookin silver. but the thing i hate about black is that it gets dusty after 3 days or so after i wash it.

oh and i think the orange is a lil way over the top for me.. like it attracts attention...

A) metallic black with blue undertone/flake
B) jet black gloss
C) jet black with silver flake

I'd say white; it looks nice, but it does get dirty easily... But I know that if I ever got an AE86, i'd get it in light blue, just like my Camry

id just repaint it black or a gunmetal. unless your going to paint your door jambs, all exposed metal inside, the engine bay, trunk etc, its not going to look good.

^^ yeah i was thinkin about that too. if i get a totally diff color it would cost more to do the stuff inside. maybe i'll get like jet black with a hint of green or silver. then again i don't think this will happen till around xmas time.
