PAINT COLOR CHOICE. Now's you chance to input!!!

Well to make a long story short, my suposedly small project of fixing the SAAB to drive daily is becoming rather obsesive. Now that the engine is out and the front grill is out, I said to myself "what a dandy time to repaint the car since it needs body work anyway." This line of thinking always gets me into trouble but I took everything else off and the car is now ready to begin body work and paint.
My dilema is this.
My car is a 1971 96. It is currently silver mink grey outside with red upholstery that is just is just flawless. The thing is that I don't really like the light grey as it just looks dull and ugly in a way. I am trying then to decide what color would look good with a red interior. I had thought of painting the B6 Hussar Blue but that probably wouldn't go so good with red. Now outside of SAAB colors people have suggested a darker grey, white and so on.
Please give me your input on good color choices and if you know them, color names or codes. I want to make the car look good and show of what chrome and flare it has. At the same time it is not a show car and is to be a practical daily driver.
Thanks as always.
