Favotrite Color Schemes 1974/5 Carrera

Looking for your opinion! Which color is your favorite on a 1974/5 G model Carrera from the chart below? These all have the standard Fuchs scheme and black stripes. Please include wheel color and Carrera stripe color with your preference, I.e. Gulf Blue with orange wheels and stripes, Mexico blue, white stripes, standard Fuchs polished petals, etc.! Thanks!

BTW, my absolute favorite is the Gulf Blue (three down, right column). I think the orange wheels/stripes on that color would look great on this car

The black with white accents or the white with black; all the rest look like they belong on a My Little Pony poster (except maybe the red, "Pearson" car)!

No, those ate just the colors used on IROC cars, I think. There were many colors. Here is a listing from Porsche. I highlighted 1972 through 1974 because that’s the MY range of the cars I have in my garage at the moment.
