What look are you going for? The euro or the more luxurious? Basically you can either go for a matt colour like camo green, grey etc for euro or like a pearlescent colour like a ruby red or a gold for a nicer clean look.
If it was me id either go a light matt grey with some sort of detailing on it (pinstripes etc) or id go for a House of Kolor paint or a brocade yellow but with extra flecks in the finish

No certain colour defines a Euro styled car!
I had pearl white to start then a matt green later. I'd have said it was euro styled in both colours.
I quite like the BMW Mini purple. Think its called Black Eye Purple?

it depends if you want an oem colour or something pearl or candy from say, house of kolor.
it all depends what you like, i think it was either audi or porsche who did a nice metallic brown
