My favorite paint color by far is BMW`s TechnoViolet Metallic. It`s a purple metalflake basecoat with a pearl red and pearl blue over the top. Spectacular color, and amazing to look at under a loupe. More common (if purple could ever be common) on the E36s and stupid rare on the E46s. I miss my M3.
Also in the race for me are VW`s Ice Grey Violet Metallic, BMW`s Carbon Black and Audi`s Sable Brown Mica. All stunning colors in changing light, and each one their own individual nightmares for bodyshops all over the world.

Yep I do love a good deep metallic British Racing Green. My first gen MR2 is getting that when I can justify the money. British Racing Green exterior, golden tan and black accented Leather Interior, and some perfectly clean and sparkly Enkie RPF1 wheels to offset the green. Then it sits in the shop and will be meticulously cared for and driven on the weekends... haha Perfect car to take the lady out on cruises, turn up the stereo and go wine tasting. I may even put on a tie. lol

The best colors I`ve ever seen are either custom or done by TVR. H.O.K (House of Kolor) Blurple and TVR`s spectraflares are amoung the most beautiful and wild paint`s on the planets. OEM`s, San Marino Blue, TVR`s Racing Green, Lexus Pearl Blue white, Ford orange/yellow metalic (Focus ST) and Ford Metalic Black (2015 Focus ST) + Volvo Polestar Blue aka Swedish GREEN!
+ Papaya Orange for those who know a little automotive history about brits and racing colors

Mine are all BMW colors:
1. Titanium Silver Metallic
2. Black Saphire Metallic
3. Interlagos Blue Metallic
I think you`re alluding to my forum call sign, Dogfather. The truth of the matter is that I haven`t had close up experiences with many greens, just my Honda, Signal Green 911 GT3 RS, and my `89 Wrangler. I need to `feel` more greens out before I can say "that one is my favorite".
Actually I lied, now that I think about it, I do like BMW`s Dark Olive Metallic.
Hard to find a photo, but an old friend restored a 79 Bronco and painted it Pearl White with the Flip Flop Purple.
I found this article while looking for a photo with that paint.
This does have Pearl White...
Anyone here ever come across this car in a show? Ron?

Red is my absolute favorite color. Looks extremely glossy and deep when polished correctly. It just gleams and shines.
