Just doing abit of forward planning for when I get my car resprayed (well, technically it'll be my donor car).
The car will be this colour as standard:

Im not really keen on this colour 
Styling wise everything is gonna be dead subtle. Irmscher/GSI/modded std rear
I don't want anything too lairy but I want it to be a colour that has abit of a wow factor. Eg. Brad's candy gold corsa is a stunning colour without being too loud
I really like carabic blue but its a standard colour & if im paying out for a respray I am thinking I may as well get something slightly differant. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a good colour? 
Afew I've thought of so far are:
Mini cooper S blue

Pug 206 CC green

BMW M3 green/yellowy colour

Anyone have any suggestion post them up please

candy red, like a real deep colour,
more like a cherry red colour it needs to be!
Looks fantastic

there you go!
isnt too mad like a flip but stands out enough!

The cosworth blue is the Ford imperial blue is it not? Its quite a populat colour but its not right for my car I feel
I had also thought about a pearl colour mixed in with carabic blue but im not sure if another colour would clash too much
