Default 250 SWB colors

My favorate part of any build is choosing the color. With my 250 SWB coupe kit arriving next month, I have been busy accumulating all of the needed exterior body trims, headlights, etc.
Found a pristine 2.8 5-speed with only 48K miles, one owner, garage kept and all service records by a BMW dealer. As a 1998 Z3, it looks like it left the showroom last week.
Down side:
Green leather seats and beige trim interior. I'll not do anything to the interior.
My only color choices to look reasonably well with the green interior will be
Metallic silver/grey
Fly Yellow
Old English White
Dark Green

At the moment, I am strongly considering the Dark Green (original BMW color).
This is the color of the Z3. Saves painting the door jams, etc.

There was one original car in Dark Green metallic that looks pretty good too.
What are your opinions on the color. I'm not locked in yet..
