What color looks best on a 81 to 88 G Body Olds

[81cutlass]

At first when I picked mine up I couldnt tell what the color was. Had a thick coating of tree sap on it. Washed it about 3 times and it didnt help so my neighbor that does a lot of car detailing ran a buffer over it. Turned out real nice. Theres not much shine left in the paint long term but for the 3 weeks after it got buffed it looked awesome. Color is stock "dark jadestone metallic". I really like it. Am going to repaint it the same color in a few years. Believe it is a 81 year only color.

I see to many g bodies painted Blue, Green, Brown, White. What about this color? 8)

In my opinion, on an Olds or Buick, you want to stick with darker colors or white. Dark blues, Maroon's, Black, etc. I just don't think the bright reds, yellows, etc. look right on them as opposed to a Monte SS.

I disagree

How about this color, Just finished painting this weekend. Factory color 86' Claret Metallic.

I am not so much a fan of the brown colors as they just don't seem to really "pop" when all cleaned up, but still nice colors.

I like this one the best

I'm going to try either a flat or satin black sapphire for this year...

Not sure why I cant copy this image, its not mine, its Robert's from Germany and its in the GP "lets see some gran prix's" section. Without a doubt one of my favorite G bodies and one of the hottest colors I've seen yet.
