When the day comes that I respray my soarer I will be going with a Violet or Saphire Blue pearl. I would never get a car in Candy Apple, sure it looks hot but what a lot of people dont realise is that its actually not paint, its Dye and the colour fades pretty quickly if the car is driven daily. |

Looks good Savo.
Paint looks very neat as well? I'd stick with black.
BUT if you wanna go a custom job with some pearly stuff or whatever, sky is the limit with soarers i guess.
Imo, dont go for something that is too bright unless you give it some sort of tinge, like mabe a orange/yellow with a metalic sparkle? *shrugs* |

Thanks,
thats funny hey with digital camera's it makes the paint look neat but in real life its rough as, surpose thats why carsales does so well
Yeah i was think a sort of darker orange with gold pearl, i got my relo to do his rx7 sr6 with it, it looks hot or maybe like the red on this soarer?? soarer.

Black with purple pearl sounds cool to me. If you're ever going to sell the car I'd advise that you don't go too extroverted with the colours. |

Savo, black does indeed get dirty. I have a black TT and you can ALWAYS tell when there's dirt on it. Would love to see what the Origin front bar will look like on a black Soarer though. |

If you're worried about dirt, Toyota charcoal blue is a great colour. It looks like almost black covered in dust. My Levin is that colour and it doesn't look much different coated in dust.  |

Go that new Toyota metllic blue...the light blue one, kinda with a pearl to it. Reckon it would suit the lines of the soarer well.

i dont like these colours on a soarer, yellow, green, blue, silver but on a square car i think yellow, silver would look mad as.
But im liking the red and black check out the pic's. |

I just love that red
Savo, what colour is your interior? I think a red car with a spruce interior wouldn't match as well as a red car with a tan interior. Black and tan work pretty well also. |

Heres the seats, took the car for a spin the other day with no interior and less the rear mufflers makes a big differnce in speed |
