I'm an open minded guy and plus some people might have seen a color i never heard of or seen
Brown would look like a turd cut in half. Carbon Grey Metallic
LOL! yeah i know brown would be turd. i was just giving an example. but hmmm... i would like carbon grey metaliic. I'd like to see a different shade of green besides mine or lime green.

Lime green! tongue.gif (seriously though lol)
The best looking verts ive seen I think were white. Something bout it, maybe the contrast with the top?

i like the grey metallic idea since i just painted my interior pieces grey
The only reason why I suggested it is cause I saw it on a Sabb, vert. And turns out its a paint used on a few vehicles (porsche, sabb, VW). I like it (and its just me personally) cause its dark, but not pitch black dark. There is a world of colors out there, just got to pick one that is right for you!
yeah you're right but i picked a color scheme...my interior is gonna be white black and grey as far as the exterior im still debating

Personally i love the Subaru color "Winning Blue", (its the color on the blue STI's) and the honda color for the SI civics "Electronic Pearl Blue" or something like that

Personally i love white celica's, also imo paul_gt4's orange celica is awesome too.
if u have the money and time for it, try a darker candy red. with the black top it would look pretty sick

I don't think all browns look bad:

Tiger eye Mica





and whatever this is on a Venza



They both look really nice in the sun.
Tiger Eye Mica under a cloudy day........to me, still looks like a turd...

In the right lighting (like a photo shoot or bright ass daylight) It has a nice copper richness to it, but I think that in all regular aspects its still the color of poo.

My poo never sparkles like that.
Can you take a picture of your next dump to verify?
Its because you are not ingesting enough metal shavings. Sure it hurts at first, but you get used to it.
Seriously, if the paint was that bright deep copper all the time it would be nice, but im not sold on it as a good looking color when its not bright. But thats just my own opinion. I will say one thing, it would be the first time I've seen that color on a Celica.
LOL.
