If the original color from the factory was red and you want to paint it a different color, I would suggest red red red red red or red. Any of those colors would be appropriate for the car, to preserve its value, originality, acceptance here at the world and the club, and to not p o dr. 914, by abusing one of his children.

Not nice to piss off the doctor! Yellow always looks hot but it makes the car slow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Signal Orange or Tangerine. Now those are FAST colors.
