In my opinion it looked good white, better matte black, but I liked your red car best! I kinda like the old 70's TA gold also, but I'm old!!

why not do the purple they put on the 2010 Vipers? then you have a wicked looking car. depending on the light the car will be dark purple, black or a blueish purple color
