If all colors are open....right now, a really hot color is the orange from the new Mazda 6, called Imola Orange Pearl if im' not mistaken, that is a serious color, it ll turn some heads.

one thing to worry about, a bright color like orange, yellow, etc will kill your resale

if it's done right it won't matter, my car had all the jams hit, the trunk etc. Only thing we didn't get was the engine bay. But that's black so it didn't matter

Silver for sure. Its a color that lots of people like (good for resale), a color the Cl never really came in, and a color that is SOOOOO easy to keep clean and maintain.

Silver fades really bad,and it almost always has a haloing effect (unless its factory paint). Otherwise, i love the color.

As long as it's..normal silver...as opposed to the CL "silver" on the 1st gen.

How about gun metal blue/gray? The new Saab 9.5's have this color and it is distinctive. Otherwise, I'd go for the burnt orange too... thinking of it for my '98 because of the tan interior.

If you order the exact ferrari paint it will be a lot of damn money, but im sure a shop can mix up something similar for a lot less.
