I love black, but I don't want a car that always looks dirty, especially since I will use it locally for promotion. Sure, I would have it detailed for an event, but I don't want it to look bad when just driving around or parked in front of my office. Is black THAT bad?
After looking at Mark's rainbow of Panteras, I still like my idea of orange. Maybe like the Superleggera, orange with dark gray accents.
I like white A LOT, but the car always washes out in pictures. Plus, I want that extra punch.
Hopefully I can come up with some Rever graphics that do it justice. I have never seen a Pantera with graphics other than race cars.

Dude don't worry about black and showing dirt. Unless you are in mud & such it really isn't bad, and the badass shine from black is great. I drive my black 5S now and then, and the only part of the car that gets where it shows dust etc is the engine bay, but even then you have to get your face in there. After a drive it does show some dust in there, but a light swipe with a duster gets it out. This is my first black car, and I can tell the difference in the engine bay from a good drive with the black car compared to red & dark cranberry...it is more dusty. Other than that, I love the lambo pearl orange. I know a guy doing a carbon fiber GT5S style car and he is going with lambo pearl orange. Cant wait to see that thing. I think whatever you do will be great if you can tie in the interior with it somewhat with piping etc, that really makes the car in my opinion is the entire build interior/exterior combo.
Talk about orange, I still miss my orange Pantera!
