This isn't as bad as it looks! I'm not puttin' those headers on my brick!

I have a white 240 with original paint that's in ok shape... pretty darn good considering age, actually. The only trouble is, I dislike white cars with a passion. I don't know why, it's just a personal thing. Anyway, it's got 120k on it so I guess I'll have her for awhile, why live with a color I don't enjoy?

I've been racking my brains trying to figure out a color that will look good with the tan interior and also not look horrible with white door frames and trunk interior (when it's open) . I love blue.

Jesse James turned this corvette into a mud bogger. The paint job? Three colors, pearl white, and two pearl blues mixed into twelve!!! different colors and faded light to dark. God, I love it!

If I can find a shop that'll do something like this... will it look totally stunning on a brick ya think? Or should i be conservative and pick a nice medium or volvo blue?

Thanks for any creative input, advice, reprimand... :-)
