Good to see that even after censorship the quality posts remain!!

a comment regarding the state of the ford web site was related!! Id did not warrant a left field reply, no the refuting of the next seven posters to save a dying arguement. If posts of others are removed then why not the mindless drivel that actually took the thread off topic?
The ford website is a poor vehicle for such things as colour end of story!! Misguided approval and an uneducated monologue about the merits of flash is what took this thread off topic not the many deleted replies!

dont worry about the deleted posts...you'll get your post count back up eventually....that blaze post was very on topic.

that vibe, does not even come close to phantom! its way to much like the holden purple, and its not that flash at all....

Ahh, thanks for clearing that up, I didn't think that they would just make more colours available without removing some of the ones that don't sell well or are too close to the new ones...

Quick question, if anybody here was able to make the choice, is there a particular colour you'd like to see available that isn't already?

Very interesting. Will be sad to see Mandarin and Velocity go. Glad Mercury is finally going. Magenta will be interesting....maybe a little to feminine by the sound of it, Dejavu will also be very interesting to see.

I've seen Bionic and love it!!
Neurotic, Toxic and Dejavu sound really interesting, can't wait to see them.
Mercury is a great colour but has had a good run, definately due to be replaced.

Menace looks like Cadbury purple, anyone who knows Maz's wagon from OCAU will know what I mean. Couldn't imagine anyone ordering their car in that colour.

I dont know what colour I saw today.

In Maribyrnong, Fairmont Ghia MkII, was a brownish goldish colour which looked alright. It looked like Holden's Tiger Mica but faded. I'm very certain it wasn't Blaze.

Is this Kashmir, or is this yet another colour?

There's got to be someone on this forum who has taken a pic of these new colours!
I feel like a 5 year old who wants something but can't have it. lol.
