just a few things to think of, the Black/dark colors are damn hard to keep clean. white is also it get little black junk all on the rear bumper/hatch
if you dont wash your car that often i say get a silver. satin or vouge is cool. i always liked CW! milano red is cool too.

btw i got a frost white 98 gsr, and sometimes its a pain to keep clean

How about a dark blue. I don't have any examples but you know what I mean. Just a normal dark blue. If you paint it with a bright blue it will get attn from thieves and cops.

i personally think that would look exotic (im bias b/c i like tan interior) do you have leather? my second suggestion would be milano red. tha'd look nice w/tan interior also
