Alright this is more of an opinion thread see what some people like what others don't...I have never seen one but I think a Baltic Blue from an mk4 would look really really good on an mk3
PAINT! WHAT ARE GOOD or BAD COLORS?

3E5 red all day long. If I could go back in time and buy an MK3 off the lot it would be 3E5 red with a shadow grey interior.
Everyone and their brother has a 3E5 car. I'm partial to pearl white, black and midnight blue. Any darker shade of silver is pure win. Flat black done well looks tough. Honestly I think a dark green color would work well, but I've never seen a picture of one. About the only color I've seen on a MK3 I didn't like (aside from neon colors, which goes without saying) is gold. It just looks plain. Even pink isn't terrible lol
Good greys look amazing, IMO. When I go to repaint mine, I'm thinking one of the Lexus black/greys that has a ton of flake to it. Working at Toyota, even some of the new Rav4's had *really* nice looking grey/metallic paint
no matter the color, focus on two key points: 1) bright colors attract attention, often not the kind you want. 2) some colors look clean even when the car is dirty (silver) while other colors look dirty if they arent spotless (black)
if i was going to change the color of my car, i would go to some new car dealers on a sunny day, and see what the newest colors look like.

I wish they would invent paint that changed color at the flip of a switch.... we have electronic valve actuation in 2011 but we don't have electro-change paint? Someone is slacking.
I think a MKIII would look sweet in a deep copper pearl with a slight color change...
Not saying this would look good on a MKIII, but I found this searching paint colors...

Whatever color my friend's 09 XRS is, is probably the color I'll end up going with for mine. Thing looks beautiful even when it's filthy, which is about your only option here unless you wash it every other day.
Regardless of what others may say, black is the absolute and will always be the best color for a car, especially the MKIII.
I really love the mitsubishi evo color (blue bayou) only seen the color on an evo but its super nice... plus its called blue by you hahahaha
