Default WS6 black to NBM yay or nay

My cars all blown apart for a full and complete paint job and has been stuck in paint jail. I mean doors off interior out all the glass out motor in my garage rollin chassis. At this time it is black and I just never have really cared for black but the it kinda grew on me and I know a WS6 does look good in black. The car was bought only cause the price was right.

However my favorite color is NBM or the newer imperial blue metallic.

Anyone have any valid reasons I shouldn't spray it blue. I do know that the dark blue sprayed over a black base is wicked deep blue when out in the sun.

It will be done correctly no one will ever know the car was previously black outside of the VIN.

Does a color change on a 75K mile effect it's down the road sell ability or value.

If you're changing it to a different factory color, I would say no.

Get a quality paint job from a reputable place and you'll love the color. Will not affect resale unless it's cheaply done. I have NBM and get lots of unsolicited compliments.
