Mazda red for sure. I am all for trying to keep things standard on such a rare car. I am going to keep my car orange, but thats probably because thats my easiest option! But it is the colour it came in, and my local panel shop was able to mix up some paint and put it in aerosol no problem.

If I had a choice on mine (unrestricted by budget) I would go for white. I think white cars still look good when their shape goes out of date. Mind you, the RX-2 came in a fantastic pastel yellow, that would be my next choice.

Is the car originally red? If so i reckon stick with it.

I have never been a fan of changing the colour of cars...when i had the FD done it was in the original Mazda red it rolled out the factory, Just the rest of the car thats changed!  :p

To be honest it looks great in the Avitar.

Candy Apple Red is an awsome colour especially with a metallic tint run through it. My car was originally white I too reckon the olskool cars suit it, but I like the green its in now aswell as it goes quite nicely in my opinion :cool .

I reckon you should go with the Candy colour myself
