Do you mean only stock black colors? Those are Granada and Flemenco black pearl. You could also talk to the paint guy at the shop, he might have a few ideas for custom black colors.

Cheers,
Roy

Isn't Java Black pearl availible on all WRX's?? My friend got his in Java black pearl his is a EJ20 WRX... Also I think the Java black is availible on all Subaru's... British racing green with a black tint looks good... Jaguar made it for a while. It looks green in the sun but when there's not much light it's black. Another nice black is the black Ford uses on the Cobra SVT mustang. It looks blue/ purple at an angle.

if youre looking for the blackest black w/o any pearls or flakes in the paint...my fav. would have to be Bentley black... the paint has an extremely deep and rich texture to it.

Buuuuut, if you want some pearl in the mix id go with the WRX black...it has a really strong blue pearl to it that can't be beat as far as OEM paints go.
