One style I've seen on Hondas is gloss black with red metallic flake, gives it a lot of depth without it going gray under flat light.
Metallics also help hide imperfections, which is a good thing on dark colours. My car's a red with small gold flakes taken from Mazda's Velocity Red (mine has a heavier metallic content, I think) and unless you know what you're looking for most swirl marks are hard to find. At least they were until I could give it a spring polish and get rid of them... |
