    what color to paint?

    i have an 88 accord lx sedan that i am going to fix up a little and then sell it. it was origionally that maroon color but now is primed. im going to give it a few good coats of some duplicolor spray paint. i just need to know what color you guys think will sell best.

    the maroon purple type of color.
    one of my 88 lx's is up for parts. good engine and transmission. pretty much everything is there. the fenders and hood are bad but other than that it's pretty good.

    Then ACCORDing to you, alot of people here have ugly crap cars,then my opinion for you is paint it pink and drive it all the time to express your true colors.

    dude that was stupid. i think you are stupid. i said this car is crap because it doesn't run well and has a bad tranny. and it is ugly. it's like a rolling box. my 5th generation is much nicer looking. if you can't respect my opinion than i suggest you go eat your shit because you have no right saying something like that to me. especially when you're most likely at home right now taking it in the ass.

    yeah, if your interior is the maroon purple type of color, i would either go with maroon again or black. black pretty much goes with anything and looks good.

    I don't know about that, but for sure red cars are hot cars.
