I love dark blue, i had to look pretty hard for my color...harvard blue..If I ever repaint the car ill probably keep it the same color, it grew on me, and don't like color changes anyways.

w0w I really like that Harvard Blue.
How hard is it to find, never seen it around here.

Well I'm in search of a white hatch, sendan, or del sol.
Whatever I find first.
I think EG's look awsome in white or black.
Well I think most Honda's look there best in white.

Dude I saw this CLEAN *** gold EK hatch in Downtown during the weekend of the Comic Con. me for not taking a pic. It was so freakin clean, with recaro seats and everything. A DC2 with what I think was a JDM front + Mugen bumper was parked behind it.

The stock light blue, the predecessor to the 99-00 Si's Electron Blue Pearl.

Incidentally, that's the color of my hatch.

LOL, that guy drives with his hand at the 12 o'clock position on the steering wheel. How @#$%ing typical. Why doesn't he pop his hood? Otherwise, I must admit exterior-wise, the hatch is pretty slick, even with the eyebrow thingies.

If I were doing it today, I'd go with new beetle yellow, or a light silver.

I like Silver but I saw a pic (Hopefully someone could post it) of a orange hatch with a off centre exit exhaust and black (Looked like spoon) wheels. It was sick. I never thought orange could look so good but his did.
