Windsor Blue (kinda purply, depends on the light), or if you want flash, Jazz Blue, both stock colours for VWs. The new Jettas have a blue that's amazing, but I don't know the name... that M3 colour kicks ***!

I don't like white cars and my 240s white. How much would a nice paint job like that cost? How much would you save if you did all the sanding down/priming yourself? I'm not sure what else there is to do, but I'd probably be willing to do it myself if it saved enough money.
