i'd go with hot pink and purple :P. well it would help to see a pic of your car. but generally speaking gray and black look very good on the mx-3. and then you got the red and blue. so u got gray, black, red, and blue to choose from :)

No pink, it's too h mo ish slash girly. If you have a favorite colour post it up so I can see. When you say blue or red, that leaves a TON of possibilities lol. So post some please!!

Yeah I was debating leaving it stock blaze red, but where's the fun in that? I'm not down playing your car by any means 95 rs. I'm sure it looks wicked.

So here's an old photo I found in my huge collection of cars. I know it's a civic, but for some reason I like the colour... see what you think.

Honestly, in my opinion that car is rediculously ugly. The body kit is over the top, the hood has vents that prob don't even have any function and the car is sitting like it's just about to go compete with Jeeps and Hummers in an off road competition.

To the person who owns that car:

My intent is not to make fun of your car or offend you. My comments are just my opinion and I'm sure you're very happy with your car. It's just not my taste.

if you could even pull off driving that thing in public and not get some WEIRD looks, congrats.

I am right there with you i am looking for a good color. I have been debating on the whole black/midnight blue thing but I'm not sure, i do like those maroon ones.

has anyone done that to an mx-3?
