Check out nissans emerald blue. It was used on the 1996 240sx. I loved that color on my old 240 and wondered what it would look like on an Evo. It was a factory paint (obviously) and it would shift from blue to green and even had some purple in it.

I also love the Evo electric blue and have even thrown around the idea of doing pearl white with a blue pearl.
