Then changed it to Cadillac CTS-V blaze orange, black interior, and the rest the same as the green one.

Now, I've decided to go with Ferrari grigio silverstone, no stripe, no hood scoop, dual roll bars (undecided on color) , dark brown and black interior. All aluminum panels (many additions from forum member Snakebite) will be powder coated Prismatic powders "hilltop silver", misc brackets "black chrome II", Lizard Skin sound and heat on the entire underside of body, and misc panels that make sense. Wheels will be non traditional custom billet 18" from VFC Performance, polished lips, machined centers with Falken Azenis RT660 tires.

Sorry, that was long and I'm sure I missed some stuff. I don't plan on rushing through this build, and am planning on around two years. Feel free to provide some feedback, it is always welcomed.
I was the 2nd owner of a Grigio Silverstone Superformance 289 roadster, with a brown interior, it was not a polarizing color, actually blended in with most modern vehicles in my area. I suggest you take a close look at the following pictures (this from the 3rd or even 4th owner) and think long and hard before you decide to go that route:

As for Austin Martin colors, my current ERA 289 roadster "hybrid" is Austin Martin racing green, a more subtle color with black carpet, tan seats and dash. Dash I am still not 100% sold on and have toyed with a recover in black to mimic the interior of CSX2208, a car I grew up around.

Your car, your choices, just want you to be able to see the differences for yourself before you pull that trigger.
