Red color for the body, some after market rims, 4-5 spokes should look good. Multi color interior, nice seats, GT wing.

If you realy want a replica, then do it the way it should look like :p

Well, its hard to tell from that pic but the car seems to be sort of creamy not like pure white. If it is creamier, use TS Racing White. Its like a creamier white. But if it's just a regular white use Pure White.

If I'm not mistaken its pearlescent, No? well I know testors makes a pearlescent overcoat in their Boyd line. In any case, it does look like somewhat of a cream color, you could try using a tan or khaki colored base coat?

AMT Dodge Stealth is 1/25 scale, not 1/20 .
IIRC Lindberg did a 1/20 scale Stealth.

Shouldn't be a problem to do the AMT kit like the one on the pic.

they look white in the pic you posted.

just a suggestion. it's usually a good idea to blur licence plate numbers when posting a picture of a friend/relative/personal vehicle.
