I would go flat black or the dark grey, thats just me though..Not a fan of the red stripe or orange stripe, and blue is meant for GT500's..IMO

Blue. White and blue are the USA colors for international racing events. USA car--USA colors. Just my opinion. It's your car. Enjoy.

Are they the stock CS stripes that go on the side or are you talking the dual Le Mans striping over the top of the car?

Blue, then Black, then Red. if I had to pick.
Blue/white is a classic and my first choice.
(flat) black/white keeps the trim pieces and the stripes color matched.
Red/white looks pretty aggressive.

Blue would be my first choice, then silver or grey. I don't think orange would look good at all.

At first i wanted blue but its to common around here, Ive yet to see one with flat black or dark grey. I wouldnt do silver bcuz then it would look to much like a shelby (nothing against them its just not a shelby). Its a toss up between dark grey and flat black. If I go dark grey the side cs stripes will come off, if I go with flat black Id probaly leave them on...not sure yet..what do you guys think? oh and apex nice car!

I think you should use the force or sit in front of the car and visualize until you come up with something that you like

Remember this is your car you can have our opinion but in the end of the day yours is what matters the most.

Have you considered copper or gold? I've never seen that on a white pony.

I kind of prefer red on white. it's hard not to like that.
