Got all my contest prizes, need help with color for the Z!

For those of you who contributed to the prizes for the Model of the Year contest, thank you! I got everything now (except the paint color, see below ), and everything looks great! Also, thank you for the kinds words those of you who sent letters along with the prizes! I do appreciate it.
NOw I am struggling to pick the color for the 350 Z, cause I really dont see to many of these in this part of the US. I was thinking the Orange color that is on the newer Lamborghinis. What does everyone think? Or maybe a pearl Yellow? I was also considering a "plum crazy" type purple. I have to make a decision so I can get the final prize.

One of the factory colors on a Z would look nicer than a custom color I.M.O. How bout Tamiya gold? It'll look like one of them top secret cars

I would go with the Daytona blue that comes on the car, or black. Lemans Sunset, the orage color, would look nice too, escecially with a black hood.

IMO any shade of blue suits this car best. With the SAS kit it would look good with a carbon fibre hood also
