and tunes, leave the maturity thing out of this. It has nothing to do with that

your 16 and telling me that maturity has nothing to do with it?

For some reason I really really like the way the dark green and orange look in those pictures. I think that in real life that orange would never look that good. If you made the dark green a little darker but kept that matelic gloss look that would look sweet!

With pic's like these that are photoshoped they may look different if you get your car painted in that color. I say look for some really pics of the colors on some cars.

tunes, i get what you're saying (and its 100% true) but i know that i feel the same way in my area... i love srt-4 blue..but there is already someone in my city who has an mx-3 with that colour
and as much as i love it, i want my mx-3 to stand out and be different.
just my $0.02

and for the guy who posted this, i dig the 2nd green and the red

Black or Blue, those are my two favorite colors on the MX-3. I would paint my car blue if i could afford the color swap, but its to exspesnive to change colors. And i also dont want to be worrying 24/7 about somone dinging my door or scratching the paint in a parking lot.

Paint your car the color you want, without worrying about what other people think, otherwise you'll never be happy with the results. Because not everyone is going to like your car no matter what you drive or what color it is.

Unless you're planning on removing the engine and painting the engine bay to match, I would never recommend an alternative (contrasting) colour. I would go with the oem colour (if that's what the engine bay colour still is) and find a subtle similar colour that has additives in it - pearl. A perlescent twist to the oem would look quite nice and one will not be turned off once you openned the hatch, door or engine compartment because of the negligable colour difference. IMO.
