Exterior Paint...need some suggestions

I'm highly considering to repaint my black C36 to a different color this summer.

If I decide to repaint my car, at most, I will like to avoid the basic colors, such as silver, white, black, gray and red.

My first thought is to paint it "british racing green". Yes, even though MBZ is made in Germany, I think British Racing Green will look nice on a C36.

Anyway, any suggestions with body colors is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Brembo

Some like chocolate, some like vanilla. I personally like rasberry.

For an MB car:

Brilliant Silver!!

brembo, are you going to keep your car for a very long time? The reason I am asking is because changing the color of an automobile causes the value to decrease pretty drastically on the resale end. If you are going to keep it, then change the color if you would like just be prepared to pay a lot of money because you have to paint in between all the jams and under the hood the in the engine compartment if you want to do it right. Sorry I can't offer an opinion on a color because I actually like all of the colors Mercedes has to offer. I also agree with karl that Brilliant Silver has to be my favorite as well.

Good luck on your decision and project. Post some pics. after, if and when you decide to paint your Benz...

If you're considering Brittish Racing Green, why not just go with yellow-orange-red flames?:p
