What colour shall I do my dino?

As was original

 

As original.

 

Here is a crazy thought: What do you like?

Paint it that colour

 

If you like the original color I would weight that significantly if you do not like pick on you like ... (it does not hurt to pick a color you can sell someday))

 

Do it any original Dino color THAT YOU LOVE! ..... even if it seems radical. One life to live, this ain't a 'read through'.

Have fun,

Tom

 

+1. Dinos look amazing in any period correct color- so if the decision is perplexing stick with the decision that will enhance its value . Original chiaro freshly painted will be awesome

 

It is important to note that while the theory of painting a car in its original colour will best maintain its value is sound, there is NO practical proof supporting it in todays market. Most of the recent world record price cars were sold in colours different to that they left Maranello. This has all been discussed here at length in the past so if anyone tells you that your car will be worth less in a non original colour, then ask them for proof of that NOT THEORY. That said correct to period colour does make a difference so if your eye is towards future resale value then it would be wise to stick to a colour that would have been available when your car was new.

My car was originally silver and is now giallo and has been for 30 years. If and when I decide to restore or repaint it I will most likely choose one of the original shades of blue.

My view is that my estate is welcome to do with it what they will, up till then it is my car and I will do as I wish.

 

Wrap your dino in matt black and paint the wheels black.

 

Rosso Bordeaux in my opinion, then I am biased.

My absolute favourite is verde germoglio too.

It's a very retro 70's colour. Perfect for a Muira's too!!

I would definitely go with this color. So unique and beautiful.

 

Burgundy or dark green with dark brown interior

 

In checking the Dino Compendium.

The colour described as Verde Gemoglio appears to be slightly different which may be a direct result of the lighting...

Another colour the looks different is Giallo senape.

Same as this one.

The 2 colours from the compendium that look utterly amazing are;

1) Verde Speciale

And

2) Porsche Signal Orange

 

Mine is silver with red and black Daytona seats. It gets rave reviews.
Happens to be the original and I left it the same when it was restored because I liked it.
Do what makes you happy.....

 

I like original hues too, but if not...

darker colors mask the beautiful contours.

go with something lighter to show off the curves. silver, verde, light blue, etc

 

Now THATS a great color.

 

Yes but NOT on a Dino........its true go for lighter shades for a stunning car.
