Gun metal grey personally but as I can see your looking for colours rather than shades may I suggest a nice dark blue

I was thinking something along the lines of something close to Lambo orange, or the purple that i've seen on some VY SS's cant remember what the hell that was called..

I seriously think this is the hardest decision of the whole car..

The suggestion of the Devil Yellow is an intersting one, anyone know if that's a flat colour or mica? also anyone know the code?

The purple your thinking of is Cosmo, and no, please no!

Not sure if its a mica, but it looks pretty flat to me. Also check the yellow on VZ SSs cause its similar (if its not the same)

Lambo orange i could live with ;)
I'll try find the code for you

Cheers Stealthy,

Might spray the guard in it and see what she comes out like...

Think it'd definatly be a grab you by the balls colour and something different for a wagon.

Bit of an updated pic, dont think i have any finger prints after 4 days of sanding. Engine bay just needs clear and its done, am not 100% happy with the rear quarters, think there is too many layers of the old paint to feather off correctly and can see a line where i've sanded thru, so am contemplating taking them back to metal unless someone has another suggestion.

I like WRX Blue, its a nice colour which stands out but at the same time is not to over the top

i have lost count of the yellow vk/vls out there at the moment, went to Easterners ova weekend and most of them models where yellow of some kind, even on streets in Melbourne yellow is getting popular. I'm a red girl so orange is the next best i guess. but let me just say its looking good.
