I like it, I had a Fiat 124 sport coupe and a Lancia Beta Coupe painted Chrome yellow a bit brighter than the speed yellow but still a close color.
might I suggest some silver wheels possibly 18s

Is that "speed yellow" or "Officer, I wasn't speeding yellow"? Looks great. Enjoy.

Love the look of the speed yellow, beautiful color. I second the motion for some silver wheels.

LOVE IT! The size wheel you need is 8" X 18" for the front though, not 7.5...maybe even 8.5 or 9" on the front! If you want the car to handle better stick with the 10" out back and give it as much front as you can!

There is like ONE speed yellow GTS in the US and it lives (last I heard anyway) in Houston, TX and has yellow wheels and black with yellow piping inside and the root wood interior! Thing is GORGEOUS! I have seen it ONCE!!! Didn't get any pics, but sure am kicking myself now for not!
