I dream in turquise since the 80s.
Pacifi blue is also ok or a cool red.

I love these "Bonbon Colors"
I hear some People say NO DON'T DO IT!!!, no one like it.
But I like it.
AtM my Ragtop is in a Body off Resto.

These are Colors I like.

Whats your Thoughts?
Its very hard.
Thanks

Are you planning on keeping it? If yes, its your car, go for it. If you plan on selling it, then its probably not the most ideal color. Most people would go with a stock vw color.
