Default Color to spray Z

So, I'm thinking of having my car painted but can't decide on a color. I was thinking of a nice yellow or a metallic blue, but there have already been three z's done yellow that I know of. How would a metallic blue look on the Z? Any other colors in mind?

My choices would be.. POrsche seal grey, BMW steel grey, Ferraris yellow, Porsche speed yellow, Hondas Spa yellow, not in any particular order.

Top choice would be Porsche speed yellow I think. It has less pearl then Hondas Spa yellow and if for some reason a panel ever needed to be painted it would be easier to match ( Pearls are a pain to match )

I suggest a metallic dark blue. Yellow could get tiresome real quickly.

I vote a dark, metallic blue similar to that on the european S2k. Either that or a gunmetal metallic. Something that reacts to light brings out the curves and lines of the z, such as brickyard, le mans sunset, etc.
