Not blue! Umm, i like the gunmetal IS300 color, but that is being played out. (like my color was/is) A nice white or a deep red is nice.

I'm more for primer on older American iron. It just looks better. Primer on a new car gives people the impression that you wrecked your car
Try looking at the Japanese Honda website for colors. I'd stay stay away from blue or yellow. Those colors don't match well with Accords.

Not blue!
agreed...unless you go with electron blue...it's the color honda put on the 99 civic si's and also the CRV...it's got a little bit of purple in it but it's still atractive...i think that paint is pretty expensive though!

I had some *** vandalize my car bout a year ago and got just about every panel scratched up. My 95 coupe used to be the stock dark green but I wanted to darken it up so I got the body shop to throw down a layer of green (in the interest of not having sills and an engine bay that were too different in color) similar to the BMW green and then I got them to throw a heavy coat of tinted clearcoat. The car moves from a very metalic green (in bright sunshine) to almost black depending on the weather, levels of light around, and the angle at which you are looking. Its real subtle so it doesn't stand out - only those that really know Honda's will notice the difference. I really love it.

BTW - Who asks 'What do you guys want my car to look like?" Its your car... decide for yourself man.

nothing wrong with sage green, then again, i'm biased...

but in all honestly, i'd probably go for a non-Honda color, like the Audi aluminum silver, the Mercedes SLK metallic blue, something along those lines...

LOL, maybe if you beg enough. Try and figure it out it out, and think hard. It isnt hard to guess. If you seem to be struggling, I will let the cat out of the bag

Berlina Black Pearl, just like my car. It makes the car look like an R33.
