Default change color for my ap1

Hi, i'm thinking to have my ap1 repainted.

any ideas and suggestions what color would be great? pictures will be highly appreciated.

I prefer custom colors and not an oem color for my ap1.
I'm thinking of either green, orange, or just retain the red color.

here is a pic of my ap1 on red

Imola Orange since it wasn't offered in the States is always popular. So is the Lime Green, but I'm not sure about that color.

How deep are your pockets? To do a color swap right will cost a lot. Would look sick though. I have always wanted to see an S2000 in bold beige metallic from the 08-10 Accords. Basically a deep grandma gold.

Lamborghini-style orange would look pretty sick on an S2000. If you've got the money to do it and are willing to accept the huge depreciation hit in resale value from repainting the car, go for it. Just know what you're getting yourself into financially before going through with it.

The value of the car might not go down to much and might even go up,if u got a 5000 dollar paint job and had the paper work to prove it and it was a quality job...Apex blue???A lot of people would pay for that...
