I personaly like the stock silver, but I think pink would be a good color for you.

Black is my personal favorite but its so hard to maintain. I really have something against metallic blue vehicles. Seems like its the color everyone repaints their cars, I don't know. My second color choice when I painted my maxima (I went with black) was a caffeine color, its a white mixed with a bit of black and silver. It comes out as a metallic off-white. Almost looks like a tri-coat.

Seriously, I would go for black, my max is black and it is a pain to keep looking clean, but if you are repainting your car I'm sure you would keep it washed up and clean anyway.

depends on how you drive, and how often you want to wash it.

I love my gray cause it blends in and it doesn't show dirt or scratches.

Paint it whatever color you like and not what we say. We are not the ones that have to live with it.

Do your own thing.

Just dont paint it blue.

dark dark metallic blue is definatly a color ive been wanting to do on a ride for a long time, however it looks like i wouldnt be that original if i did. black looks really good on our cars, thats the color on mine and i could imagine how good it would look with a nice makeover. only other thing i would suggest would be a lexus pearl or somethin, it would really bring out the luxurious aspect of your ride.
