    I not one for flash.I more into the simple clean colors. Many of which are 50`s and 60`s colors but for some reason here lately I keep being drawn to one color in particular.It is a 2010 Hyundai Accent color called Apple Green Metallic. I don`t pay much attention to colors on car today but ever time I see this color I am drawn to it. Ford has a color much like it as well as Toyota but they don`t do it for me like this Hyundai color. Do you have a new color that jumps out at you??

    I really like the red metallic that is on the new Dodge ram trucks. It looks great in the sunlight. But I would still sand the whole truck and re-clear it if I got one. The factory finish is really orange peeled.

    I hate that damn color!

    I like the subtle pearls Cadillac has been playing with, ranging from white to black. They have a really nice plum/purple color.

    Hypnotic Teal, like the color, but not sure what I'd paint with it. Something 60's..., Caddy?

    Not really new though, it's been around since, 69', all Ford's grabber colors really stand out, don't care for the really bright colors on some cars though...

    I don't like this on the new Camaros but maybe if it were on the right car...it sure stands out

    The New Camaro color is cool but it seem to be beaten to death all ready around here.Seen it on Bikes and even 4x4 trucks. I find the coolest colors end up over used and in turn make them less desirable.

    That color I like it reminds me of something that would be on a 40`s dodge.

    Deuces,
    I don't even know if you can get one now. The best part about the paint on "Miss Blue" is that it's the original paint job from the 60's. The car has never been restored.
