    Black

    Or do something that would stand out, racing green or orange of some sort. Do a metallic job as well

    I agree with 1991_Vn2nV, If you're gonna respray it, go for something that'll stand out. But make sure it's a colour that stands out for the right reasons....

    I like the look of a artic white vn with dark tinted windows. Makes a statement but its not too flashy

    Try not to do a colour that will date.The only one i can think of is a silver colour.70s 80s 90s 00s there was always a silver.I like that Smurf blue on the Monaro.Depends on how long you intend to keep it.

    I think a nice rich neon blue would look nice. I've seen that colour on a VS, slammed, with 7" wide 'ceptors and 235s... looked classy, but brute-ish at the same time.

    Then again, I like interceptors too much. probably because I'm pov.

    i would paint it a similar colour to what you have already. then you dont have to pain under bonnet etc that can be annoying(to do it yourself) and more expensive.

    Original, Black or Pink Hot House green and Turismo blue are also cool but since they are two really popular colours maybe not
