Default Revell ITR model...color choice help

I just bought the ITR model kit at a local hobby store. Going through it, i notice that it should be painted yellow. Now the body itself is flat white. But I would like to paint it another color. But I don't want to paint it yellow. Is there another color I should paint it?

I will post pics of the model once I'm through. Thanks guys!

Well, we all know that ITRs only came in yellow [sic] so I really don't think you should paint any other color.

You could buy some original touch up paint, it's available in small bottles, after all you don't need too much to cover a small model.

if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.
Just need some help with a color choice, that's all.
or is it +1 to your post count?

They Tamiya NSX-R kit instructions says to paint it with Tamiya Racing White (TS7), so that color is probably pretty close to Championship White.
