I personally chose to go with titanium with black stripes, i just liked the way it looked. reminded me of the eleanor mustang. I did not think i would like the royal blue, but i saw one at the car show last week, and I have to say it looked pretty hot. I dont like the green personaly, but hey thats just me.

You might want to think about resale value and saleability with the green. While the green really looks nice on these cars, it is not a typical color and you may find yourself discounting the price in order to move the car someday (or allowing for more time on the open market). We all go into a car thinking that we may hang onto it forever, so often the color choice becomes a non issue. But it typically comes back to haunt some.

Just some food for thought. In the end, choose what makes you happy and don't look back! Hey, you're buying a Superformance and you'll have tons of fun either way.

Default Help with Color Choice

Intouch,

While Dean make a valid point about resale of the green, blue still seems to be on 3 out of 5 replicas, with one of the other two silver/titanium. So in part it depends on, of course, what you like best, and do you want to blend in or be different? If you do go with green, think about a tan interior. And remember, you'd only need one buyer who likes green if you sell later

Ever since I was a little kid my dream was to own either a Red or Black cobra with white stripes.

I am expecting delivery on my cobra in a couple of weeks its Indigo Blue with white stripes. Go figure......

My recommendation is to get a color that is fun to wax!

The common theme here is go with what you want!! But, if you want my opinion, the blue is the way to go (if those are your only 3 choices). My SPF is royal blue and no matter where I go I get more complements on the color and look of the paint over most anything else. Superformance does such a great job on their paint, it just looks awesome!

And always remember, opinions are like a__holes... Everyone's got one.

SPF does a dynamite job with the paint. I love my Titanium with black stripes. Tons of pictures in my gallery. The green would be nice, but will decrease the resale value IMHO.

Lets seeeeeeee--There's black with white stripes or maybe black with white stripes then there's always black with white stripes. I just can't decide.
