I was thinking if I was to pick a color unrestricted it would be a grey of some sort but not metalic. I have seen recently a very nice shade of gray but I don't know what its called. Several manufacturers are doing it now. but i think it would be stunning on a pagoda.

I have to agree with Pinder, in my humble opinion non metallic grey looks lovely on cars, Audi and Ford have started using it over the last few years

I personally like two tone on some cars, my wife's mini is grey with a black roof, and i think a grey Pagoda with black hardtop would look fantastic

Hi guys

I also like Havana brown with black hard top. Looks really nice!
