First of some history. I bought a lx450 and took off the body cladding. The body is fairly rough so a repaint has been on the list from day one. A local guy gave me a deal on a repaint I can't pass up so it's going in a couple weeks for that. He's welding the holes and doing all the body work so it should be nice when done.
I'd originally thought I'd just do a factory respray of the original color because it would be, well, original. But now im starting to consider a custom color.
My question is, will that make my 80 less sellable if it's a custom color versus a factory color. I realize I've already taken the cladding off so it's already not original anymore. I'm not planning to sell anytime soon but if I ever do would it affect the value? Maybe that's an irrelevant question because I imagine a custom color already narrows down potential buyers if I ever sell. If I do a custom color it would probably be a late model Subaru green or Hyundai has a nice late model blue also.
