The Turbosystems Escort Cossie and Sapphire Cossie with tiger stripes are the best looking tiger striped cossies I have ever seen - I think Tony or whoever picked the colours just managed to get the right blend of blues and greys and the right amount on the cars in the right places to look stunning! See below pic of escort for what I mean:

That silver one looks good, but I don't think Magenta will suit Tiger Stripes to be honest, white always looks good with them though I reckon.
