    I like the red. I have one though. I did have it repainted as well, cause it was fairly faded etc when I first got it.



    I do love the Jamacain blue too, at least on Bridge's car. I think her wheels really help on her car as well. My least fav color though is the dark green.

    Looking at yours makes me feel better about mine, Aaron; I had contemplated a color-change, because red draws unwanted attention at times, but I certainly don't have anything against the color, even though there are so damn many red 3Ss.

    Hoping to paint mine next winter.

    Green, there's no reason any car should be green. And I drive one

    White would be my favorite on our cars.

    I honestly love all the production colors.

    The only color I absolutely HATE is SCHOOL BUS YELLOW that some people like to repaint our cars in.

    My least favorite color of the factory 3/S, is that teal color. Sorry to anyone that has it, I don't mean to offend, it just screams late 80's early 90's.

    There's the pearlescent teal, that I LOVE (jamaica blue on the 3000gt's and whatever they call it on the es's, r/t's and tt's)

    But then there's the aqua color on the base model's and 94-95 r/t's... that is HORRID. flat, putrid teal.

    Yup, that's what I'm talking about. I don't mind Jamaica blue, but gawd that teal/aqua whatever it's called leaves a lot to be desired.

    That looks awesome. There is a lot of red hate in this thread , but IMO it is the best looking color on a first gen stealth (even though it is the exact opposite of stealthy). I never liked red on a car before, but the red and black combo on the stealth is where it is at. I just think most reds are ready for a respray. I can appreciate almost all of the factory colors if they are matched with the proper wheels and accents. And a worn out base model stealth isn't too appealing in any color...

    I hate the champaign color as well as the teals. The champaigne is definitely the worst.

    Among the best are black, amethyst purple and I like the pearl yellows on the VR-4's.
