Best dark color paint

Looking to paint my car soon, but I haven't made the final decision in color yet. I'm looking toward like dark purple/ blk cherry look. I don't want straight up blk or blue. I want to look good and create some what illusion LOL.. I'm open to any paint color ideas and color code if possible.

Couldn't find navy, only this matte bello blue color that was on a lambo a while back.

I also found this Ultra Matte Black Pearl vinyl color:

I dont think lexus ever had midnight blue as factory, i think it was custom paint. If wrong, please inform me with the color code as I'm highly interested in that color.

I have a bit of a thing for Porsche's recent metallic brown, but it might not be dark enough for you:

Otherwise, I also really like the Holden's Soprano Purple...
