the color ive been thinking about recently is a dark purple metallic that R34 skylines come in (or something close) wouldnt look good with blue interior, but if you wanna hop on tran turismo 3 you can check it out, i think it looks fantastic

Do what I did and swap interior . I had gray/blue interior in my GXL and swap it to a GTU interior with carpets and seat. Just need to get the black door panels and I'm all set.

THis is a very nice RX-8 blue, but its not the winning blue. I think its the same color as the X-Men RX-8 color

white, blacks, grays, reds and maroons look great...I don't like blue FC's except BlueTII's, his is SWEET just bc it's got such an incredible motor with such quality parts (mmmmm bronze volks) but the paint is still the stock weird blue color

i'm painting mine nighthawk black. For anyone who doesn't know it's like a metalic black only the fleck is blue, red, purple, and silver. But I also have a prismatic pinstrip on my monte carlo so my color choices tend to be funky.
