Fingers at the ready...

Or in general really if you were to spray an NSX which colour would you go for?

My NSX was sprayed from IOP to Rosso Corsa Red; not by me but given the choice to start again I'm not sure I wouldn't have picked the same colour.

I love orange, but prefer lambo orange to the NSX one... in standard form I don;t think the NSX can pull off the Lambo orange though.

Ladies.... place your bets!

I am 50/50 on going Championship White or staying Silver. The difference in £££ is not that great when you consider the total costs so far. The only thing that worries me is the amount of dissasembly they will need to do to get it done correctly.

I don't think the car will need any Soy sauce when is finished, but... bear in mind is not going to be a wide body.

Cheers,

Ary

I would stay OEM. I once had a car Resprayed a different color and it was never the same after, there were rattles were there was none before certin things just never looked lined up correctly, I got wind noice and water seeping in from places, it was a total nightmare. I had the car completely stripped so the whole car was sprayed. I know its probably all down to the bodyshop you use but the guy I was used was highly recommended. I guess when you know your car well, the way it is, after any change you always pick up on things.

I love the top McClaren orange one, I think a few mods to make the NSX a bit wilder helps to pull this off nicely. I'd lose the transfer but like the wide rear end.

What's going on with that middle one and the wings!?

Championship white is a good call Ary, Think of how much more desirable it will be from a resale point of view. People pay big bucks more to have a white NSX-R.

BTW did I mention that I want first refusal when you decide to sell?

I knew Simon would go for the puke green:laugh:

I think the orange needs a black roof to break it up a bit.

I think Ary can guess which color I've voted for if non OEM color. If you go with one of Honda's options then White or Silverstone grey

I'd like to see / know the mods and look of the car b4 really being able to decide, however, I would definately change it from slow old silver ;)

I would spray it Platinum Pearl. The NA2 NSX at japfest was really really stunning. Sorry i don't have a picture. If I got a full spray job i would invest in that protective paint film as well.

Another vote for Silverstone, then would it really matter about painting the engine bay??

White would be a close second.....

Lime green pearle with a gold fleck... this is no MX5 that Ary is going to pass to a hairdresser you know;)

Some colours look a bit girly when they're all flecked up. A lot of people love the pearlescent white but for me it's a bit feminine... just my opinion of course!

Isn't the Mac orange not Papaya? Like the ultra rare Mac F1 LM? Still look ok! Sorry I'm boring and I don't need to tell you what colour I would have!? :D Having said that I love Black or white too! :)

I can't believe TSO has put in 7 votes for "leave it silver"... kinda defeats the point of the poll mate!

Is that possible Luke? Thought only the TQO or Kevin had the magic touch/powers? Gentlemans don't do that! :D
