I say the white pearl. The grey is real nice, but the white would look good with carbonfiber parts.

Either a gold or deep, smokey bronze. Almost a brown metallic. Put gunmetal or gloss black wheels with polished lips on a car that color and YOU will be the one having your car posted in threads like this across the web.

I couldn't actually find what I'm seeing in my mind, but this is close.



This color is a bit warmer, a bit more bronze.



Could be something classy, ya know?

Why imitate when you can innovate? :shrug

Go with the grey. Then put on black wheels with polished lip.

with the 2 cars side by side in the first pic the first thing i see is the white one. it catches my eye first and i think looks the best plus with white you can choose almost any color rim and it will still look good with the car. but i think both are good color choices either way you good :thumbsup

I went to the acura dealer today and looked at some colors. I also checked out the Acura TL Type-S. oh... so hot! I wanted to see the colors in person. I scoped it out and something else caught my eye more. White Diamond Pearl. It stood out from all of the other colors so I think thats what I'm going with. It will go better w/ the grey interior more than the premium white pearl.

Here is a picture of my friends TT Supra in Lexus IS300 Graphite Grey Pearl with black 19" SSR SP1 Professors. Thing looks KILLER in person. I think that it would look great on the Eclipse. White with gold, bronze, black, silver wheels has been played to death IMO.

I think that the grey would be more of a classy-sporty color and give the car a sleeker look.

Thanks for the comments. Keep them coming. That grey does look nice! It does make it look sleeker. Hmm... Any pics or the grey w/ blue pearl painted on something? Now I'm leaning away from white. I dont think it looks as good on eclipses.

I don't want to give away the color I'm going to use on my car when I get around to it, but the supra is very close and with the hint of blue... these guys are right, it looks absolutely SICK!!
