Black top, grey bottom

I Love Boobies · 08-07-2008, 12:03 AM

all white

Grazzhoppa · 08-07-2008, 12:04 AM

satin white pearl or lamborghini gray

silverF4turbo · 08-07-2008, 12:12 AM

I wanted to vote dark green after seeing it on a FF-1 here

sexy

maybe something dark metallic like Corvette's Bowling Green

kind of unassuming though... grabber orange is interesting me and some of the brighter yellows like Jun lemon yellow or Phoenix yellow

Kostamojen · 08-07-2008, 12:23 AM

That green is

I've had two green Imprezas btw, not really in another green mood

impreza_GC8 · 08-07-2008, 12:35 AM

Hmmm that white is so sexy. I think simple is better for such a rare / classic car. Color combos could make the car messy. I think the lines of the car will speak for itself with a nice simple paintjob. White is the one!

Chrisco78 · 08-07-2008, 12:39 AM

"Phoenix"

I voted. For 8. Didn't want to die...

FiveDoorSVT · 08-07-2008, 02:01 AM

I like the 2 tone, with white on top. Viewing the car from the front or above will give you the classy white look (and make a great background for sexy sponsor decals), with the color on the sides bringing some style to the profile. Mexico blue is pretty cool, or maybe that blue from the M3 (marina blue?)

bemani · 08-07-2008, 02:03 AM

I don't think 2 tone is a good idea if you're on a budget ...

I do know a painter or two.

However, it all depends on how much the bodywork will ultimately cost

Nice.

You absolutely need to do 2 tone then. I voted for #10

FujiHeavyFreak · 08-07-2008, 02:54 AM

It has to be a 1960s-ish light avocado green!

saltYmirv · 08-07-2008, 04:13 AM

Root beer on bottom, root beer foam on top

Mmm tasty

agreed, why didn't you add this to the poll?

Longitude · 08-07-2008, 04:26 AM

Number 19 inverted, so dark part is on bottom

dubs04sti · 08-07-2008, 07:52 AM

British racing green if you go green.

Second that.

impreza_punk · 08-08-2008, 02:34 AM

How about something like the cosmic blue mica thats on the MS3

That or something like a silver blue would compliment the car well IMO. Anyway you go good luck

1stockwrx · 08-07-2008, 08:14 AM

No Wrb?

ill go for white..

deadlydave · 08-07-2008, 08:50 AM

I suggest WRB. Voted 'other' in poll. Also, Sedona Red would look stunning.

F EVOZ · 08-07-2008, 08:53 AM

why don't you go flat black? I think it would look killer

UltimateLurker · 08-07-2008, 08:56 AM

The new GTR silver is absolutely stunning in real life...

darknightohio · 08-07-2008, 09:03 AM

Maybe something like this:

Has that classic look to it.

Box This · 08-07-2008, 09:45 AM

#10 is the winner.

This car is going to blend in with the rest of the crappy old cars on the road if you don't put a striking color scheme on it.

It can't be clean, and bland. It has to be 2 tone, and shocking to get any attention at all.

Orange top / white bottom wins.
