if you ever plan on trading it in or selling it then you defiantly shouldnt paint it..
i do like the color though, in fact that shade of blue is my favorite;however, i couldnt picture it on a gxp unless you really shine the wheels and exhaust up or something

Try owning a black one. What a PITA to keep clean but when it's clean...dayum! Get yourself a California Car Duster so you can just take off the dust particles that accumulate day to day

Dirt roads with 20's would suck even more. I live in Milwaukee and the stock 18's give me hell on the crappy paved roads here. I would want to shoot myself with 20's on a dirt road.

I love my "purple" I like the way it looks in the sun. Its not my favorite when its overcast out but it looks different that any other car out there. I also love atomic orange, hopefully when i get my z06 one day I get that color

That blue would be awesome! I hope you do it. I was trying to get a lazer blue monte but all they had in the dealer network was black.
