Tbf a mate of mine has a Midnight blue Rs2000 and it just stunning and it nearly edged the yellow out as well but i am glad i chose yellow. Its a bit of a marmite colour i find, some cars it suits realy well, mk1 fez, E36 M3 , old 911 Porsche's that sort of thing and some stuff just looks pants in yellow !

Glad you didn’t do it in midnight blue one of the worst colours in my opinion Car looks spot on by the way
