Most company's "factory" colors work really well.

BMW has great blues, Porsche great silvers, etc.

Black cars look great when clean...but they never are.

Mazda makes great whites.

Good silvers are sexy, too.

Silver fits everything with the exception of luxo sedans. Even when it's dirty it still looks clean. A well detailed silver metallic pwns all.

Pitch black, with enough clearcoat to add an inch of height to the car.

I can't believe yellow came before green.... no love for green these days eh? Well i guess i'm going to be the different one! Can't go wrong with a really dark metalic green.

Agreed. Although I had a Miata and R32 GTS-t in the same color and loved them too.

Metallic Charcoal

These are the same paint codes. Stolen from my Titan.

I also love silver:

(before the accident when it got rear ended. This is the same car as the first I posted)

And of course certian cars can wear black really well. Like a beautiful woman in her little black dress..

I do not own the last car posted, though I wish I did. I do own the Titan and the GTST.

Four years later, everything still looks better in black.

Evidence to support my claims:

(The 16'' 5 spokes don't hurt, either.)
