What Is The Sexiest Color on 2002?

Im with you on that, It does depend on what your trying to build. INKA Orange is a "LOOK AT ME" color. Best for sportier cars. Fjord is also beautiful color, but a little more understated. Best for sleepers, and I feel it looks better on Roundies, particularly those with silver grilles. I love those two colors, but I think I'm sticking with my factory Riviera. It's a nice darker robin's egg blue, that I think offsets the later models black finigily bits and trim. I've been told it looks like the 70's Porsche Blue. Any color looks beautiful, I've seen Marc's beautiful Green Roundie, Blunt has a particularly nice Inka. I've basically danced around the entire subject, but I hope I've been of some help.

I like fjord blue with tan interior since I had a former 02 in that color but I'll try not to have another metallic color 02 again. I had too many problems with metallic paint on 02's and I said never again. Now I have a color I like, Sahara. It's stealthy and no one ever messes with it. I sgree that Golf, Inka and mint green are look at me colors (ticket magnets). I recently had a chance to buy a Baikal and tiaga 72 & 73 tii shell and I turned them down. I instead went with a 74 tii sahara shell.

I'm also a firm believer in keeping your 02 original. If you want your 02 to be a different color, find one in that color. don't repaint yours. You've got an awesome color combo in your fjord blue sunroof tii and you got it for a great price. You bought a 35 year old one owner car, how rare is that? Just keep it garaged and don't drive it during DC winters. Salt and 02's don't go together. Welcome to the madness!

I love the treads that are nothing but subjective. I'm going with Pastellblau with silver Panasports or Superlites.
