What to do with Decepticharge

So, I got a Decepticharge :CON: in a "for parts lot" on ebay.

I was planning on doing some extensive rebuilds on the jumstarters, but I have a couple projects planned first that are a little less complicated (since I'm kind of new to mods)

universe battlechargers (which I should have done both from bumblebee or wheeljack, but instead I'm using red alert and ko deep cover)

and something with this beaten up Decepticharge. His spoiler, antenae, engine and side mirrors are missing and his paint job was messed up. So, I stripped off the "decals" and I was planning on repainting him, at least where his car parts show, and doing some kind of scratch-build to cover-up the missing parts and build up his neck a little. It is such a thin peg and looks weak. I was thinking of doing the built out pieces as some kind of vehicle mounted guns

Now' here's where I could use a little advice. what color should I paint him and who should he be? Is there and obvious character that he could become? Or should I keep as Decepticharge and just say its his ultra-battle mode... or energon Decepticharge... or Shattered Glass Decepticharge?

...thoughts? :???: Advice?

If you're looking to repaint, then perhaps Getaway? Counterpunch? Freeway?

Otherwise - Freewheeler? Laster? Roadhugger? Motorhead? Gearhead? Rev? Tigertrack? Universe Overcharge? Cheetor?

You know, with all the blathering I did in my original post, you think I might of mentioned I wanted to keep him a Decepticon car. :CON:
Geminii, thanks so much for all of your suggestions. Actually, looking at Roadhugger lead me to Hyperdrive, who I think will ultimately be my choice. I actually have the g1 micromaster sportscar patrol. I really like Decepticon cars, so it's a great choice. And I like the color scheme a lot. Detour would pry be a more obvious choice, but I'll see how things go.

thanks!

Alternators Megatron. The head already looks pretty close, but with a little work, you could REALLY make it perfect.
