Enterra is a very interesting and rare automobile. I believe that less than 30 of them are still known to exist. The one that you have looks like it has a Fiero V6 but everything I've read about the car says that they were also made with SBC's.
I am certain that Archie and crew will have it looking stellar.

Any V8 in an Enterra Vipre would've been custom installed sometime after the car had left the Enterra assembly plant.[This message has been edited by Patrick (edited 11-25-2012).]

After much deliberation, I have decided to keep the car in its original color and have picked new wheels. I think it looks good. Give feedback. As you can see, we are new to Photoshop, if someone who is experienced with it could tweet the photo better and make the front bumper black, I would be grateful. Rumor has it that she is about to go under the knife...will keep you posted.

I am considering white with black accent scheme for the car. I am definately open to peal white paint just as long as it is bright enough. I am looking into whose paint would set it off. Any suggestions on paint that provides depth and doesn't give a dingny look would be appreciated.

I like the white concept. For a non-metallic paint, I like Chrysler/Dodge's Bright White. My 97 Dakota is still nice and white and it's an outside truck. Never garaged.

Lisa,
I like where you are going with this. Personally I LOVE a white clean looking sportscar. If I ever get the cash my notchie will be white as can be seen in my photoshop in my build thread that has not been updated in FAR TOO LONG. Anyways, as you are aware there are many many different white colors out there. I once saw a white Lamborghini Murcielago that was white with a kind of pearlescent in it that looked amazing. Here is another suggestion tho, I used to be big into sportbikes and had quite a few Yamaha sportbikes including a 1992 Yamaha FZR1000 which was a pearlescent white with red and black accents. It looked amazing.... Most importantly the WHITE was very smooth looking. It was apparently sprayed over with some kinda pearl that was very very subtle. It looked white from a distance but up close you could see the pearl in the paint and I loved it. I could see that beautiful car with that paint on it with subtle black accents looking amazing. Good luck with it either way you go. Here is a link to a picture of the bike I am talking about. Peace

I like the white color and the wheels as well.  Just know what you're getting into if you go with pearls... too much and the paint gets a "tobacco stain" yellow appearance at shallow viewing angles. IMHO, I've found that pearls and metal flake these days are way over done. It's actually a nice change to see a solid color on a car... but to each his (or her) own!
