Well, lets see. Black is timeless. I personally am not much a fan of reds or blues, in other words, I don't paint my own cars those colors, BUT, they are very popular across a broad spectrum. There are some rather nice variants of reds and blues to consider. Even if someone does not love reds or blues, like me, most find them acceptable. Silver is a neutral color not likely to offend anyone, and some love it, almost no one hates silver. Yellows and Oranges are hot, but you either LOVE them or HATE them, not many are middle of the road on those colors. For the record, while I love Yellow and have hadm success with yellow, I have also found yellow to be the color most likely to offend! Greens are tough, funny enough, the plan right now is to use a rotten pickle green in a two tone design on our Rivera, and I am not usually a green fan. But we like funky greens. And as much as I really think Orange is a fad color, we will be using Tangelo in a two tone design on The Milf Project. But then again, I know the painter and can redo whenever it goes out of fashion

I don’t know if I helped much here. All I have done is give the opinion of a 25 year painter / builder and show veteran, also a dealer that sees colors comes and go. If you would like to tell me what colors in general you like, I would be happy to help you pick a nice shade or variant you will like, at least give you an opinion. And you know what they say about opinions! Just decide if you want to be trendy or timeless.
