first i love rock star and the pink looks way better in person then it does in the pic. and i would rep any rock star color on my car with a sticker if they asked me to. but why not do a matt black kinda like the rock star cola can. and do like that pink for your rims. and other little thinks would look hot

We're painting my wife's zx6 rockstar pink, but I wouldn't do it. Regardless of how different it is for a guy to drive a pink car, it will always look like a chic's car. Albeit, a cool looking chic car if done properly, but a chic car nonetheless.

Bang for your buck...black is the way to go. It's a base color that is commonly shot on cars prior to their top coat. Less time for prep and color change can be more money towards custom painted graphics or striping. Matte Black with gold and white like the Rockstar cola would be a better fit IMO.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

I agree with a lot of people, the pink if done right with the right accents would look amazing however, it will still look like a chics car... Maybe I can give the EVO to the fiance, but drive it all the time.

The pink supra is awesome, that was the thought I had for my car!

I won't be doing matte black, if anything it will be Lambo black. I still have a couple months to decide what I want to do.

That gets my vote. In fact, I've been looking for a new paint scheme for my Busa that color may just be it.

Can you give me the actual name or paint code? There are several blacks for the Lamborghinis.

Haha, sorry, I've been around hondas alot so I'm more familliar with their color codes. If you prefer, I can suggest laguna seca blue?



But in reality, this would get my vote. It's a custom house of colors mix, called candy brandy wine. Very nice IMO.

Obviously black is the only respectable color for a straight man, but if I can coerce someone else to paint thier car pink I will make that vote every time.
