Chris, if you are considering blue, check out Mazda color "Celestial Blue Mica"... I was really, REALLY close to going that color - some people might poo poo it since its an OEM Mazda color, but in person it almost looks like a candy color... when I first saw it I thought it was a custom color. I think its a very cool color!

As mentioned before, the reason I like OEM colors is that is will be easier to match if/when touch up and repair needs to be done.

I must admit, I’d be jealous of anyone that gets this color… as its one that I considered heavily – just didnt know if it could be pulled off on a G sedan.

It's okay in a pic but I will definately check it out in person. I don't mind if I find an OEM color. I'm not trying to be a show car or anything. Just looking for something I like. OEM actually makes more sense because of the point you made...easier to touch up/repaint if needed.

Thanks Mike!
