Oh, let's not forget that with expert application and some subtle formula tweaking by experienced painters, I've seen dark greens and even Burnished Brown cars that have turned out awfully sharp, and much more attractive than original '69/70-spec GM paint. (Silver and Gold cars, too.) The key is finding a mix that has more depth, or "snap", or whatever, yet still doesn't look out of character. Subtle tweaks can have a huge impact on overall impressions.
