Was just thinking about this the other day.

If you could re-spray an RS what colour would you go for. (And no I'm not turning mine into a show car :lol: )

David Khoury's looks great in the metallic gold.

I like the PPG colours in the silver/purple or the green/blue

What does everyone else think?

:!: RADIOACTIVE PUKE GREEN :!: :D

But, really I think pearl white looks pretty damn good, along with Dino's red colour. But ya gold paint with a slightly gold window tint would look sweet also!

Metallic white with a light electric blue pearl :P (by pearl I mean that paint that changes colour but not fully, like you see a shimmer of blue in the white)

But I like my blue as well

House of Kolor Candy - Just about any colour you like would look great. Ketzel's MR2 from the High Octane 2 looks great in Pagan Gold.

I actually like the colour of our friend from Europe who has the metallic blue wagon which I think looks rather stunning. You could use an off the shelf colour called Holden Delft Blue and a maybe add and extra pearl blue of purple over the top to get a similar effect.

My 2 cents.

STi Blue would look pretty cool... or failing that, the Legacy/Libert Blue/Violet would look nice :)

Silver would be a class move. An all silver RS wagon with colour coded skirts and rub strips would be sensational.

Er.. nice avatar Slo. What's it saying about you?
Maybe the guy in yellow represents the govt, and the 'recipient' is your average motorist. :wink:

Yeah mercedes silver with large euro style chrome wheels under flared gaurds & totally debadged would look high class or that 555 blue or even the r34-gtr blue would look tight with black or gold/bronze rims.
All black - body , rims -everything would have a real sinister look to it.
All white would look HIPO and give a boyracer look.

I've been thinking the same thing for a while with my car...

A few of the panels have erm, problems, caused by little C**TS kicking my car...

I was thinking a nice warm pearl over white. So classy...

White skirts to match my white wheels?

Or would that be a little to 80's?
