very personal question. Don't let anybody sway you.

But, If was me I would go with neither of the two. What about the dark blue since you was going to pick a shade of blue?

IBM is almost black. It's a very different color from ABM.

RY is a great color - it's what I'm currently waiting on. Then again, IOM is also a great color, especially with the right color stripes. With RY, it's pretty much black stripes or nothing. I don't know how much you care about stripes, but that's something to think about.

I agree with coolman though - you have to like the color of your car, not anybody else. Don't let us pick the color.

RJT is amazing - I saw one in Myrtle Beach and it looked absolutely sinister with dark window tint.

Of course I am a Gamecock, so I may be a little biased on the Garnet/Black thing.

Not even close to black. It sometimes looks that dark but I would describe it as more of a deep Blue/borderline purple. I agree it is very different from ABM, but it's still definitely blue. IBM with the white stripe package is sexy as hell..

One thing about ABM is on the computer it looks blue, but in person it looks like teal.

Yeah you have to see these cars in person to really understand how the colors look. IBM can look like a dark smoky blue gray, almost black, deep navy, or when the sun hits it like a deep sapphire jewel there's so much flake in the paint. It's very moody depending on the lighting. I love mine. ABM does look more like teal when you see it. IOM looks like tomato soup until the sun hits it and then you see a galaxy of gold flake in the paint.

The metallic colors really change their look depending on the lighting.

I love your car doc. Great combo with those wheels. I wish they had hugger orange with white strips instead of IOM. I know what you mean about tomato soup.

It really looks like you want to be different. The rjt has been beat to death by every car company. Why not wait until the green comes out and see if you like it.

Thanks IOM is kind of like IBM in that it doesn't really pop until it's under a strong light or in the direct sun light; then it's mesmerizing.

I was a ralley yellow guy until I saw the pics of your car. Just enough yellow on an awesome color. I would love to do that but wouldn't want to copy yours.
