Toyota also has a crazy dark dark blue that almost looks like gun metal... I dont know if they've painted celicas stock in that color but i know they painted MKII supras that color... so i'm guessing they have celicas in that color too.

i have .. i painted a house with that color haha.. its not bad.. as u say not flashy but sticks out..

personally i would go for some sort or dark blue...

Lexus Spectra Blue Mica...P.J. Bonafico(sp?) has it on one of his corolla levins. He might have added a few colors but thats what i want.

Here's a pic of the ALL blue interior which should be a pain if I want any exterior color besides the factory blue

I love that Levin... well i dislike the euro grille, i think he should swap the grille for a japanses foglight style... but toysport sells them new for $800.

I also love that color. Thats one blue paint job i'd take in a second.

If its the blue I am thinking about, that is one good looking color. It really fits the Levin

The lexus blue Levin with the TRD wide body and 4AGZE. I think it'd look ten times better with that other grille... I dont know if its just me.. but i think that color would look good on a MKII supra more-so than on a MKIII celica... i dont know why either. its prob just my opinion.

there is a guy around here with a strange purple color, for some reason it makes his car look good. Its a very dark purple. Looks like he mixed it with some black

Kinda like a midnight purple? It sounds like the color on Signals Skyline.

Are you talking about the Toyota red/brown they paint the MKII's then they fade and it looks like the whole body is pure rust?

In the artice it says its Lexus Spectra Blue Mica Custom, so im sure he mixed it with something else. He also has a JDM Levin in "Lexus Silver" Im thinkg its Lexuse Millenium Silver or something like that.

Which would you get out of these three?

Spectra Blue Mica
Millenium Silver
Graphite gray pearl(the really dark gray you mostly see on the IS300)

ah no no thats like a rusty orange.. i've seen a 82 celica gts that color.. on my red 85 celica parts of my car have a nice bright red then it fades to a dull flat ugly red.. and some clear coat is pealing.. almost like its shedding...

Has anyone actually seen that crazy orange red color in good condition? everytime i see a supra in that color it looks like a body of rust with wheels.
