This question falls under, "should I keep my CS original or change it" which is a most common question on this site. Summary is that it is a very debated topic, and most of the time ends with "it's your CS, enjoy it".
But, being the owner of a Sunlit Gold CS, I could not imagine any other color being better! Casey

Congratulations on your purchase!
As Casey said, it all comes down to what you want. You may get 10 different opinions but bottom line is it's your CS and you need to do what you want. Good Luck!
p.s. that's a pretty low VIN - do you have the Marti Report with the build date? Just curious to know what it was.

It also depends on what you plan on doing with the car. If you are going to show it or sell it you'll want it original as possible. While I agree one should do with the pleases with their cars, I'm a fan of keeping it as original as possible.

Barrett Jackson 2007 Scottsdale GT500
There was a person near our group's cars at the 2007 Barrett Jackson in Scottsdale with a 1967 GT500, auction number 1565.1, who told me he changed the color of the car from its original Ivy Gold to black because he thought it looked better in black. Apparently everyone else thought so because it went for $290k. I don't think the color change mattered at that venue, but the guy was quite the salesman as well.
