I had mine done in yellow and it looks nice.<P>Personally, I love black and would stick with it if I had it as a stock color. And your going to wish you put the money into performance later on....trust me on that one :(

I think lime green would be awesome. Or you could try some combination of camelion paint with some green in it maybe.<P>~A

custom paints are what you're looking for...<BR>think about an irridesent black. For those who don't know what it is, It is black with a blue hue or you see a dark blue who you look around the sun's reflection or look "into" the paint... OR .... try pearl blue... a beautiful shade of blue that not many people have. expensive though. :p

I was goin to go with lime green or tangerine orange and make the car into a low rider. But I think I'm goin to go with one of the two colors for sure :)<P>Thanks

Mazda came out with a nice midnight blue that could be mistaken for custom.

I've seen one done in white with two blue racing stripes, black, red, dark blue, green, plain white, and a teal blue. Teal blue doesnt look that nice on an mx-3 but its all about what the own likes I guess. I think Im going for the lime green for sure :)

Nah... Ive seen that one before, and I don't think I really like the color. Of course thats a personal opinion. I like a more darker lime green but its still cool. :)
