Help with colour choices!

I've ordered 3 models on eBay for a total of $90. I don't yet have the models, or the paint, but I am trying to figure out what to paint then.
Here are some box/internet pictures:

1. Tamiya Volvo 850 Turbo Estate

2. Tamiya Nissan 300ZX

3. Revell Integra type R

Colours: ITR: Yellow (as in picture)
300ZX: I saw a French Blue in a thread once that I though looked good. Can anyone think of any other colours?
Volvo: I love the Cream Yellow colour, but that would mean a black interior. I sort of wanted a Tan interior, but that doesn't go with the Cream Yellow. I don't want a black exterior, but I did see a red that looked OK.
Can anyone help me please?

Re: Help with colour choices!

what you want is 100% down to you and not something anyone else can choose for you. Google the cars you want to build and see what colours people have them in the real world.

Thanks, your right. Now anyone know which spray paint in Tamiya's chart is closest to Cream Yellow?

Car to appear like this: http://www.carlustblog.com/images/2008/02/22/8502.jpg

I've decided on Bright orange for the 300ZX, and Yellow for the ITR.
