Sprial Grey is awesome. Viper Blue is a good color too, or the new vette blue.

Spiral Grey has too much green in it for my tastes. I'd take a look at some other greys, BMW has a nice one...forgot the name though.

that last color is cool but it has just enough green to make me not want it...something damn close to that but without the green would be PERFECT
