Default Customize Color?

I spent most of my day, today driving around town. And I saw three silver xA's and two blues. I know for sure my car color or the xA's weren't popular after I bought mine. I want mine to look different...so I can stand out from the crowd. I'm starting new job tomorrow that will give me extra money to blow. I'm thinking getting estimate from customize paint shop and see how much it would cost me. I don't want bright yellow, or somewhat pink. And I also don't want to paint it current Scion color. I'm thinking maybe orange...my birth stone color and I LOVE color.

Any other colors or thoughts? I just want to stand out and look sharp. Show what the car is on Earth for :D

Yeah, they are becoming popular in Kenosha and Racine areas. CarMax has sold about 85% of them around here.

I would rather have HOT LAVA on an xA!!! But, I will not destroy my limited edition SBM RS2 just to do that. But if I had a regular xA, I"D BE ALL OVER IT!!!

Yeah! I just can't paint a car that is a limited production color. I will have done just about everything else to it though! :D
