Default what color to paint the C5??? Brazen Orange??? Attomic Oran

I have a black C5 that is going to get repainted. I love black and it looks great (when it is clean) but it is impossible to keep clean. Some people dont have as much trouble keeping a black car clean but I do. maybe its just the area i live in and the fact that I cant park her inside.

I have never been a big fan of changing the color of a car since there are allways little places you can see the old color (engine bay, under rear hatch, etc )
since this is a black car it will not be so bad. I am considering going with another color and am open to ideas.

Brazen Orange

Atomic orange

of course I really like Electron Blue and Mellinium Yellow but I was thinking that if I am going to paint the whole car I may as well get somthing a little different.

I like that atomic orange. The Brazen is just too yellowy for me. However, that Daytona looks real nice and kind of reminds me of Sunset orange Metallic, which you could never go wrong with! IMO
