I like the color onthe nsx.. Its like the diamond graphite metallic on the g35's
Ive always liked Ivory pearl also...
yeah i usually like white(yes i called it white). But I want something not stock because i'm sick of seeing 100 accords the same color as mine.
But I also dont want something really flashy like neon green or construction truck orange.
altho the blue is an accord blue, but not offered in the US

Well look around at rarer, higher priced cars like Porsches, Lambos, Ferraris, and Vipers and see if any color stands out. If one does, just call the dealership and get the paint code. This way your Accord will definately be a different than any other!!!!! Hell i got my paint code off of an '05 Viper i saw in a showroom at the Dodge dealership.

out of your three, i would say blue, except imo make it a little brighter blue, like a more metallic-y version of the blue STI.
my personal favorite car color is orange. theres nothing better than a nicely painted bright orange car.

ive always been more a fan of this style: http://istargazer.ca/sti/rally_armor/sti-cherry.jpg
little brighter. like if you could get the shiny-ness of that accord combined with the brightness of that sti.
but thats just my opinion, the darker looks good too. still better than my puke-tan colored car

I think i am leaning towards the blue. It was offered on the Accord SIR-T and the European Prelude. But what makes me not want to get it is it is offered on the US CRV.
after searching for litterally a hour and a half I have the name and paint code(damn not being able to find information on EDM/JDM cars)
heres a prelude in the color

That blue is gorgeous, but I'm a little biases as blue is my favorite color. I'm not gonna lie, I like the S2k CR blue and the NSX blue.
S2k could be a little darker and more metallic in it.
