Default Color advice

Hey all,

Would like some insight from everyone and anyone. I recently got my 96 Hatch back (unintended pun :chuckles from my cousin and I'm thinking of repainting it. I'll be attempting to paint it myself in the garage with a spray gun.

Question: What color should I paint it? I was thinking of bright, glossy white (something you would see on a new Porsche), Championship White, or Metallic Gray/Silver (the color on Miatas).

TIA :goodjob:

Champ white is the single most played out color ever.
