It's not like I hate the factory colors, even the monochrome ones look good on such a good looking car to begin with. If I had a halo or pavement one I doubt I would be motivated enough to spend the money to get it wrapped.

I'm just tired of 90% of all the cars on the road being black white and silver. If it were a $500 option to get orange, I'd do it.
i've considered wraps, main problem being that they generally are only guaranteed to come back off for 5-7 years, and cost around 1-2k fully installed. not to mention that by 5-6 years, most wraps are starting to pull/crack on the hard corners anyways....

my brz is 7 years old already. had i wrapped it, it'd mean this year it would need to be re-done to maintain the freshness.

i quite prefer paint...
