Getting her painted soon and I want to change the color but not to a common one

I’m getting my 1991 camaro rs repainted soon and I wanted some suggestions on what color. It is currently red but has a major paint job from the last owner. I don’t want a basic color like white or black I’m looking for something unique.

Hugger Orange is a good one, I'd think. Would look sweet with White heritage stripes.

I like the copper-orange sort of colors. I think GM used to call it sunburst orange metallic. I used to have a Cherokee in a great color similar to that called "mango tango pearlcoat." Awesome color.

Limerock Green Metallic was a great color offered on Corvettes in 2014. I've considered painting my GTA that color.

Car looks great as is! Nice car. I do like this new "concrete" color they are putting on Chargers though.

That green is very nice. Definitely not common.

4th gen. Firebirds used Sunset Orange Metallic (SOM), which I love.



I also like this Corvette "Carlisle Blue".
