I'd go with a Black Manta. But, then again, I'm biased.

honestly IMO our cars are too plain looking, it takes a nice color scheme to really catch people eyes, and i wouldnt go with an orange/black combo, i never thought that was a good look on any car. White/orange, silver/orange would look awesome.
