If you could pick the color of your Vibe...

So I am sitting here at work being all bored so I figured I'd think up a topic that hasn't been thought up yet. If you could pick the color of your Vibe (it can be a new color or the ones the Vibes already come in) what would it be?If this topic has already been brought up, I greatly apologize! I'll go first:I think maybe a pearl blue would look nice!

The new color for 2006 might be kind of a pearl blue ? Check out this thread for pics. They are in the first post. I think the color is called Stealth.Hmmm maybe a sort of chameleon paint for me. Something that changes color with different lights. Anybody here have a custom paint job on their Vibe ?

Chameleon is nice. Which one would you go with? The green/orange one or the green/purple one? Those are the only two chameleon ones I've seen so far on cars. Haven't seen any other color combinations.

Well, if I was gonna get a vibe again I was talking to a paint shop about having a custom chameleon paint made that went from black to green to go with the other idea's i had layed out. Pending on what car I get I may still do it.

It's not blue. It's a charcoal gray that somewhat changes color depending on your angle. It's called Stealth Gray Metallic in other model lines:

I'm thinking maybe a canary yellow. With tinted windows and some nice wheels it would look pretty sweet.

I ordered my Vibe in white specifically to act as a good undercoat for a screaming bright yellow re-paint. Unfortunately, after getting a price for a top grade job ($3,500, including extra work for the two-tone trim) it was me doing the screaming....

Even though I DESPISE the color silver, there is a paint called Silbreeze, that is the color change (chromatic?) type that seems to be quite popular.There is a 69 Camaro in the BF Goodrich ads, and was profiled in HOT ROD magazine a couple of years ago. It looks pretty slick (for a silver car anyway).

Other than that, maybe if I were to go full hog and beast it up completely (body kit and all that), maybe something wild like Plum Crazy (purple).Or Hugger Orange.

I would like a two tone Vibe. But not like the cladding two tone. I would like the bottom half to the windows or just below to be Rootbeer color. The top half to be Cream Soda color. With a racing stipe down the passenger side (one thick stripe and one thin stipe) in the color of the foam head of Rootbeer. That would look interesting.

For starters I would want BETTER paint and a thicker/higher quality clearcoat... after that I would have to say I would want my Vibe in either metallic green or the aformention chameleon, maybe an orange to dark blue.

I deffinately would have gotten Stealth. But a green like the dark Polo Green like my '92 Olds would be cool.

I always wanted that kinda sea foamy green. I'm on my third car, and none have been offered in a sea foamy green. But, since more and more paint is coming off, and mnore and more scratches are appearing, perhaps I will paint it a nice sea foamy green soon.....hjwii05 Neptune, mono

Whatever color grows back and regenerates like "the wolverine"? So all these primer spots will dissapear once again under a sea of neptune.

I pick Platinum...but... I haven't seen the new available "Stealth" color in person. I always liked the Silver or Golden colors as they dont show the dirt as quickly as the dark colors (although, there is nothing quite as sharp as a "SHINY BLACk" vehicle....but they are a ***** to keep shiny and clean.

That is like a sea foam. It is really nice. That may be the color your looking for.Also, I saw a gold Nissan Morano and thought the Vibe would look great in that color.

Torrid Red just like my 2004 GTO, well maybe the Neptune blue for contrast in my driveway.

Then all you'd need to complete your patriotic theme would be something in white! Heheh
