Having trouble deciding on a color for the 240. I'm thinking of a copper/bronze/gold color. Roof will stay black, CF hood and hatch. Rims are black 10 spokes with polished lip. Help me decide! Pics would be greatly appreciated. The winner will get a special prize! :goodjob:

That's way to yellow/green. I'm looking for more of a dark coppper/gold color. Like the orange on the 350z, but less orange. I like the color on the diecast model. Somethings missing from it though.

Yeah, I really like that last one. Just bright enough and just dark enough. Now I've gotta get a paint code, lol. ;) Thanks for your help!!

A real close match is the House Of Kolor Ketchme Copper. It looks like this:

I wouldn't mind doing a flat color, but I don't want the car to be completely orange. I was hoping for a dark bronze color, but the HoK color Dejavu found looks really good.
