Very nice.

For the Alfa, do a nice silver metallic while doing the interior in a 2 tone grey/dark grey scheme.

At the Wal Mart here, I saw an awesome color, but didn't get it. I can't remember if its a Model master, or a Boyd's, but its a Black/purple metallic mix. Looks sweet. Use that, White interior, with dark purple accents.

My Alfa GTV is painted in light gun metal. If you want pictures of it let me know.

I'd go for a solid black or metallic dark blue. There's a blue one here on my street and it looks cool.
