Titanium Silver, like on the M3 Showcar.

Probably one of the best looking paints out
there.

It's a deeper silver than the Silver frost,
but it's got a Titanium tint.

It's gorgeous.

Is there a website I can see the titanium silver? I also liked te VW satin silver.

Black cherry sounds awesome, but what would that look like?

Couldn't find pics of the Titanium Silver,
but if you do a search on Altavista I'm sure
you'll find something.

'98 Contour SVT with 'stuff'

The highly-metallic silver BMW used for the
M3 showcar didn't see production for a reason
of course... poor durability and resistance
to weather. So what to do they do? Yuck! The
Pheonix Yellow and Laguna Seca Blue are both
pretty hideous. Can't believe they left the
M5 Lemans Blue off the M3 option list... but
that's what BMW Individual is for I guess.

T.

what do ya think of black with a blue pearl. Not heavy but enuff to have it change color somewhat in sun. Or with these pearl colors: green, red, silver, or black cherry (whatever that is)...

sorry, i meant "Dark Cherry" doh!



if you add a pearlescent overspray, it would shimmer between red-black - it has a "Mystic" paint look without the Green/Brown colors

Do some sort of design in the pearl clearcoat, then more regular clear over it.
I have seen it done w/ checkerboards or stripes etc.

I always wanted to see a black Viper GTS w/ the stripes done in pearl, so you can only really see them if you are looking for them or catch the light just right.

I want to see the rest of that car toadster. It looked sweet!

RARA,
I was thinking about a dark grey pearl in the design of flames on Black. Kind of ghost flames. Definitely catch some looks.

Good ideas so far guys...thanx for the responses. I liked the porsche and the bright green but those might be too bright. But I do want to stand out. Want it to look diferent than what everybody else got..
