Front runner is white.
This is essentially my car. Same wheels and appearance package. Same year
My favorite ideas so far are white, black, smurf blue, and Kubota orange.
I cant seem to find similar pictures to the one above in the other colors. Id love to see it in puxels before seeing it in my driveway, just in case it doesn't look as good in person as it does in my head.
Outlier colors are panther pink and plum crazy purple.
Could someone do better google work than me, or Photoshop the color ideas onto the above picture for me?
Also, feel free to make suggestions. Bonus points if available in rustoleum or single stage.
And also, share your opinion of what color i should go with....
I like the idea of Kubota orange, so here's a quick preview:
It would take some more time to get all the seams right etc.
I like Kubota orange as well. Just think of it as camouflage for when it's out hunting cones, they'll think it's one of them
Pink would be cool too, though. Really play up the whole hair dresser stereotype.
Here's a better Kubota Orange:
Black:
Smurf blue:
A wise man once said that Orange is the new flat black.
I like the orange.
Added bonus: be seen in a bright, small car. Don't choose an asphalt grey color. You'll never be seen.
Orange looks way better than i thought it would.

Please, please, no black.
NB looks pretty good in Smurf Blue, since it never came from the factory in that color. Kubota OJ is pretty good too. Looks good in white, but if you're going to change the color, go with a non-stock color.
MINIs come in a nice robin's egg blue I am going to use on the Manic Miata if I ever repaint it. hard to get a good picture of, but this is close.
I'm partial to the Mazdaspeed orange
My last NA was painted a poor approximation of that color and I liked it a lot.

I say Smurf Blue, but I may be biased.
Just for completeness sake, can we do a quickie with plum crazy and panther?
Orange looks way better, and blue way worse in pixels than in my head. The blue may be a touch light though. Maybe more of a petty blue would eork, rather than smurf.
Sunoco Blue
but still like the Orange
I'm bad a searching here- anyone know how to find Keith's build of a "retro" Miata for a customer? If I wasn't partial to red, I would totally dig that color on my car.
Again, biased. But I'm a fan of Montego Blue Miatas but it was an NA color never done on NBs.
Thats about the shade of blue i was thinking about.
I'm gearing up to paint my LeMans someday and I really like the really deep Mazda Blue... Stormy Blue Mica. Code 35J or BC.
That would be a nice blue, and keep it in the family.

Pink with hello kitty livery
Closest I could find to Sunoco Penske themed Miata.
Glow in the dark. Green or blue. I'm not joking.
