I keep filp flopping between my color decision for my 02 targa I am currently building for this years show season. The car is at the body shop having all the body work done and is "supposed" to be going into the paint process in about a week.

The colors I am trying to decide between are:

1. Lambo Orion Mica Pearl Yellow
2. Pearl White
3. Candy Apple Red
4. Aston Marton Mercury Silver
5. Ferarri Titanium Silver

Just wanted to see what some enthusiasts thought.

Here is a quick rundown of what the car has:

There are a bunch of other things like the audio video, seats accessories and stuff but that is the main part of the build. I am hoping to have the car back and completed by the beginning of February.

Exterior:
Techart TypeII (replica) Front Bumper with carbon lip, GT3RSR Widebody Front Fenders, GT3RSR Widebody Rear Flares, GT3RSR Widebody Rear Bumper, GT2 Wing With Carbon Fiber Wing Blade, Carbon Fiber Hood.

Wheels & Suspension:
19" Volk Racing GTV Custom Wheels (black center with chrome lips), K&W Variant 3 Suspension, GT3 Sway bars with Agency power End Links,

Engine:
Fabspeed Headers, Agency Power Exhaust, Nitrous Express System (Just for Show-It was a sponsor) K&N Intake and considering a chip

 

Paint it Pearl White. I've always liked the pearl white color on cadillacs, has a bit of a blue tint to it. Delete the Cats too!

 

I had the fabspeed cat-deletes on there but I am taking them off because I dont like how the car sounds with them. It is too lound a raspy for me and not porsche like. Also it throws a cell and annoys me.

 

You could get resonated cat deletes with a 02 simulator/MIL eliminator or 100 cell cats...

 

wow sounds cool, would love to see pics.....post em up!! even the during process would be cool!
it would look sick in mercury silver!

 

Lambo Yellow

 

Yellow or white. Silver is common on a P-car.

 

I know I lost my "before" shots from when I picked up the car. I am stoping by the body shop tomorrow to take sone pictures of her all torn appart.

They have the rear fenders test fitted, the front fenders on, I installed the wing already, the CF hood, The Suspension, miuns the front sway cause I couldnt get the bolt for the brace off.

It already has the rinnspeed E-brake, Pedals and shifter in.

Ill post the pictures tomorrow night hopefully.


I know the yellow would look great, but is it too common on a P-car. I want to do different but sometimes "different isnt always better or good"

 

red or white, these are the least colors out there for P-car, more so on the white... gl

 

yeah although I have silver...I wouldnt paint another car silver.

How about the "mexico blue?" that is a sweet color..or just crazy..and do LIME GREEN or the RS ORANGE? If it is going to be show car...make it LOUD and BAD ***!

 

Thanks for the suggestions, keep them coming. It kind of comes downt to if I want to do it "classy" or "agressive".

I like the silver becuase it still keeps the car very luxury but will still look mean with the agressive kit and balck wheels and all the carbon fiber.

I like the bright colors like the lambo ithica greean, and I like mexico blue too because they will really make the car pop at shows and makes it really racey.

God this is the hardest part, color can make or break a car.

 

I think pics would help us out a little.

 

Right now I only Have there...Pictures of the parts...















My Illustration Of the Car:


Here is the Kit, its a Getty Design GT3RS Kit. I Have everything except for the front. I instead opted for the Techart style which is being massaged to fit the wider front fenders.


Hope this helps. Like I siad the car is at the shop going under the knife right now with all the body work.

 

oooohhh i can't wait to see more pics....as common as silver is i think it would look great with the contrasting black/carbon and the wheels, the carbon hood,and wing along with the targa top will break the silver nicely.

 

Right now I am pretty much down to either the lambo yellow or the the silver/pewter.

Heres a few more pics:

The Steering Wheel I have if right now:



I havent decided on the seats yet. I also am waiting on my audio sponsorship to be fully approved.
