    the blue is too loud for a stock looking corolla. Unless ur'e gonna go really really radical (i'm talking more than a mere body-kit) i'd stick with the cherry cola.

    u've got a 93-97, right? i think the cherry cola would look nice on that.

    I'm really leaning towards the cherry cola, but my only question is does that have the swirl mark problem that is common with dark colors? I don't know anyone who has that color, so I can't ask. If someone knows, please let me know.

    BTW, Matt, it's not purple passion, it's a dark burgundy that changes color to look the same color as coca-cola (kinda brown with gold high-lighting) in the sun.

    If I go with the cherry cola it's gonna have black trim definitly, leather seats, black rims, dark tint, hopefully some A/C!!! :D AND DEFINITLY A DROP!!! hahah.

    If I go with the blue it'll still have dark tint, but probably grey leather seats, pilver rims, and a DEFINITE drop.

    I still don't know. I know that when I do paint it it'll be what I really want, but it's good to know what you guys think.

    id rather have your shade of red than mine. the only thing i can say about my red is that rust can kinda blend in, aside from that i wanna get the whole thing re-painted. (maybe a dark blue or black)

    I picked blue, but Cpat, did you look into the blue that is offered in the toyota line (indiglo ink pearl)? Its offered on the corolla, scion xA, tC, is300 and others.

    The cherry cola is too similar to the burgundy available through toyota at the time

    Go blue.
