Second color suggestion for 1961 Impala

Dear friends, the first color choice for the 1961 Impala is the Turquoise Metallic.
for the second choice, I already disregard white and red because the 1963 Ford Falcons will be issued with those colors and I don't want to duplicate.
I am thinking between Fawn Metallic or green . What's your choice?
Thanks so much!photo no longer available

It would look even nicer in 2 tone combinations with body in a metallic color and roof in a light color, i.e Twilight Turquoise/Ermine White, Fawn Beige metallic/Almond Beige, or Arbor Green metallic/Seafoam Green NB The first color of these combinations is the body color, and the 2nd is the roof color

The car you are showing looks to be Seamist Turquoise which I would personally vote for over the Twilight Turquoise or at least have it as one of the colors. It's such a period color and completely different from any 1/43 model offering in the period I'm aware of.

I’ll vote for the green, seafoam, arbor or the turquoise.
