The Vista Blue seem to turn alot of heads, as I would imagine the Sonic Blue does as well.
The orange peel thing will usually be more noticable on the verticle surfaces. If its real bad
its thin clearcoat. It can be wet sanded and polished but great care must be taken not to cut
through to the basecoat. If this happens its off to the body shop.

How about white and red? Hard to keep clean, and an attention getter. It's a labor of love my friend, lol!

I dunno, i really like all the colors, except i wouldn't buy Torch Red, Redfire or Screaming yellow. Because i'm not huge fans of those to begin with, and also, it seems like i tend to see alot of similar colors to those.

I'm pretty much stuck between the Black and Performance white, i have a few months before deciding, but i like to think things out. Especially when this thing is on my mind every single day.

It's easy to keep the yellow clean, but every morning when I go out to get in the car it's covered with those tiny green bugs (look like mini-grasshoppers). It's wierd, but they are attracted to the color. They are never on the wifes Arrival Blue Cavalier parked 3' away.

Pros: Easy to keep clean and I get lots of positive comments in town.

Cons: Everyone in this forum calls it "that ugly green color"

I like the ugly green color, I'm thinking of painting my 72 Rally Nova that color. It's pretty close to the original GM green, but a little nicer. =)

Yellow vert with Black top and interior looks awesome, nice color combo. However every bug and speck of dirt STANDS out. All in all not a bad trade for a sweet ride.
