Default What color?

I have posted a thread before about getting my 95 gt painted. But i keep changing my mind so i just wanted everyone to let me know what color they think would look the best on a 1995 gt.

I'd more than likely squirt it the same color if it were me.

Stick with original color... thats a nice color plus I think color changes lower the value of a car IMO

Any respray is going to "lower" the value of the car. It's not factory paint, if you are going to paint it, go with a color you want imo.

I like lazor red, but it seems to oxidize to easy, my friends 05 mustangs clear is already damn near gone on his spoiler... and it always looks like the panels are different colors to me... but thats MY opinion.

Plus, i love having a color that stands out, everybody tends to jaw drop at car shows when i pull up, and its nothing special at all.

Lazer red or candy apple red both look great.

a friend of mine who is a painter for a ford dealer near me said that they have a newer version of the laser red paint that is a two stage instead of the 3 stage lazer red. Anyone have any pics of it? He said it was on the newer fords.
