Default What color is your SC and would you change it?

Im considering re-painting my car a different color. I think I want to go with that royal blue that Lexus offered. I have a black SC with Green neon, so I may just stick with the Black because I really dont think that Blue would look good with green...but ya never know. Just getting an opinion.

SILVER! My Sandstone Beige Metallic has enough of a silver hue/shade to satisfy my silver fantasy so there's no way I'd change colors but I'm sure it will need a paint job at some point in its life but If I ever had to, it would be a silver and the second choice would be a blue-purple (RSP, IS-F).

Do you have full coverage? Because hail can total a car sometimes from what I've read because I guess the body dents, etc. and also the paint, of course. If you have full coverage and there's damage from hail, I'd try to get them to pay for it.

TN got some hail in spots a few days ago. I was at work when I heard hail so I left early from work so I could put my baby in the garage. I don't think the hail got near my car or the parking lot, just random spots, because I didn't see any hail ice ***** on the ground. I'm trying to get a second car that's good on gas and I can drive in bad weather, etc. without having to worry about it.

Yeah franklin pretty much screwed me over with all of the hail we got about 2 years ago...Then a couple of days ago it went from nashville right down to me...i was SO mad! I didnt know you were in TN we need to hook up sometime....do you go to a lot of those meets in the boro? I was gonna roll down there sunday and see what was up. Oh and...no i dont have full coverage...im 16 so I cannot afford it!
