Hey guys

I own a 96 gs with black altezzas which are supposed to arrive any m inute now actually.
Unfourtunately I got some minor rust but before it spreads im gonna fix it and paint it afterwards.
Right now its black but since im painting it I wonna paint it some other color.
So my question is If you were re-painting your car which color would u choose?????

If you want u can attach pictures to show what u mean.....


The ones I got in mind are

1) Pearl White
2) Midnight Blue
3) candy apple red
4) pearl black

How exactly look candy apple red?

I would preffer pearl white.. in my town there is one A4 with pearl white and it looks great..

Pearl White. I love the way an MX3 looks with that color.

I probably wouldn't stray too far from the original color so, from the list, recommend pearl blk. That is, unless you're prepared to pay extra $$ for the repaint job to include engine bay, door and hatch jambs + inside-facing surfaces of the doors and hatch. My MX is orig. Mazda chaste white. Thinking about a paint job next spring with either OE paint or a slight metal flake added, but still keeping it white.

Ditto!

yea.. i got a black gs thats got bad paint. I cant make up my mind if I wanna keep it black or get a white with blue pearl in it....white is much easier to maintain, cant notice scratches... but much harder to paint

yah isn't it like avergae or 3 grand for a complete re paint with like..door jams, engine bay so on and so forth ?

have you seen "pearl blue", man I love that color. It is the color I am going to airbrush my designes on my car with. It is also the color I used for my dash parts, you can look on my cardomain site...

all black mx3 looks awesome leave it that color

Don't do pearl white! I'm doing pearl white it should be done in a week and a half

Midnight blue + gunmetal rims + altezzas + 2001-2003 Civic Projector Headlight Conversion + Mazdaspeed bodykit = awesome looking car.

Just curious but, this is your car. Pick the color you think is hot, not the one I think is

Done a year and a half ago...original "UF" white. If I had to do it all over again, I'd add a little pearl/metalflake twist to the original colour, thus eliminating the potential unsightly gawdiness of off colour engine bays, jams, hatches etc, etc, etc.

pearl white is nice

Yea, stick with your instincts. If you are going to pull your motor out and every panel off the car then yea, change it to any color you want.

Personally I LOVE black and I would keep it that. Only problem for me though is that it gets dirty as soon as I move the car. I'm in the process of prepping mine now to get painted. Doing all the work myself and just have to pay for the cost of materials to get it painted. I'm going to stay with the black color also. Can't wait to see how beautiful it is after I get the new rims on and wet sand and buff the whole car.
