If you could paint your car any color...
What would you paint it?
Reason I ask is I'm the most indecisive person on the planet. The car is going under the knife soon. Pulling the motor for a big H/C/I upgrade. Going to clean up and undercoat the underside. Fixing the bodywork on it and repainting it inside and out. I have a handful of colors picked out but I honestly have no clue what I really want. Here are a few that I have picked out...
Lambo Orange
Cyber grey metallic
Foose Huntington blue pearl
Pull me over red
I'm honestly up for any suggestions. Post up all your favorite colors. Id like some ideas.

I generally like orange, but NOT that Lambo orange. It looks like it's a metallic, and I don't like that particular shade in a metallic.
Of your above choices, I really like the Cyber Gray. I think I like the Blue Pearl as well, though I would need to see it in better lighting to really give a proper opinion.
Since you asked for additional ideas, here is my submission. Not sure if you like green, some love it some hate it, but here is one of my favorites. This color is called Spring Green (Code 36 for 1972 Chevrolet), here it is in both daylight and artificial light:

Is this on a Camaro or Trans Am? Imo it matters....
Out of the colors you picked, Foose blue.
This would look wicked but I think it would have to be the right vehicle/color combo/rims
Black Cherry Pearl

Ford had a color in 2012-2013 called Darkside Metallic. It was a dark metallic, almost black color but under the sun it had green and blue metal flake. It was pretty cool

Cyber grey looks very boring on a Camaro, I've seen it in person.
I like som but there are to many variants and most look like ****. So I went with a Holden (gm Australia) color called some like it hot and yes that the actual name lol.Attachment 582349

Personally if I repaint my car, I'll go with Hugger Orange

Im partial to Sunset Orange, but If I were to repaint it would without a doubt be Jetstream Blue. To do this color correctly is a bit pricey however.
If you like Cyber Grey, check out Ashen Grey as well. Subjective I know, but Ashen I think is far more better looking. Its more of a warm grey shade than a cool like Cyber.

Nice colors.
If I had the money I would paint my SS white.
I'm so tired of the maintenance of my black SS, any rock chip, scrape, minor scratches or ANYTHING makes it look bad. it's a struggle.
But I do like that metallic grey on that Vette.
SOM is pretty gorgeous as well, that Lambo orange is badass too
