Bright = yellow sticker magnet if it's a daily drive, then again shiny things = chick magnets...hmmm
Aparently the car is in black primer because it is easy to identify any imperfections in the paint work. The car comes with a tin on blue primer, which is meant to be really good, to get a nice shiny finish. It will be daily driven, I do like bright colours, and girls. But i am definitely leaning to a dark purple colour at this stage.

Dark pink with dark rims, maybe with splash of carbon fiber.

Or like a candy apple red mixed with a dark midnight purple?

Or steiger green (like the big old tractors) would look tuff. Haha
