Werd, Pine & Lime FTW
Not that im bias or anything....

I also liked Galaxy Blue that much i did my CBR in it, with a light purple pearl mixed into the paint.
It was hawwwt
Looked better in the flesh of course.

[WPN XR6T]

For an XC, Copper Bronze.

[SVTVNM]

Always been a fan of Yellow Ochre.

[Dazza XLT]

Vibe for me.

[XRSIKS]

I like my Seduce BF XR6, but on a XR8, i dont mind the Octane :P

[T-BOOST]

here are some differant veiws of EGO

[MONSOON]

Monsoon of course
Wild violet
Definately NOT wintermint or icemint, or any colour similar to those, like on BA's

[Evil Roy]

Monza Red

[JBomb3000]

Blood orange, would look great on a XC

[AUsome]

Fantasy

[XRchic]

Black (Silhouette)
Ego
Sparkling burgundy
Breeze
Sensation

I wonder what the new colour Velvet will look like. Im thinking much like the extremely dark metallic burgundy colour in the Mazda range... that would be my fav.

Guys,

I'm liking ego, not sure how it would look on older falcons. Has anyone got a photo of an older falcon that has been done in ego. Ego has a look that would I think stand up well on older Fords. What do you guys think??

[Cabbage]

Forgot to mention that the xc will have restored original rally pack wheels, 14 x 6. Too much grey?? Ego would seem to be matched best with modern wheels?

[XR6_190]

I think that Ego would look pretty good on an XC, definitely original, and I'm not to sure if anyone has done it, so you could possibly be the first.

1 question though, has anyone got a photo of Fantasy, I can't remember which colour this is, I'm usually pretty good with remembering these things but I can't recall Fantasy

I want to stay with a Ford colour and would love to hear Forum users favourite Ford colour - with pictures of course! A good excuse to post more pictures of your vehicles if one was ever needed.

My favoruites so far: Sherwood Green and Antique Beige :

If you can't decide on a colour just go with Henry's choice - BLACK. Worked for me! LOL.

[CAT600]

Blueprint or Ego

Fantasy is like a base dark blue with a green and purple pearl - very metallic and very pearly

[snakeoil]

I have a fantasy ute which is an amazing paint color

light dependant there are four distinct tones blue green purple and bronze

I bought my car (even though i hate autos) because of the paint

Cheers

[Trek]

(Metallic) Sapphire Blue, for sure. It's a shame the EL's I've seen in this colour have all been autos though. 'twould be a rare factory combo, methinks.

[Sherwood G]

Did you ever paint the ute? I have a Sherwood Green XB GT, hence my log in name.

[SSD-85]

Contemporary Fords: Silhouette, Ego, Narooma Blue & Blue Pearl.

Classic AUS Fords: Apollo Blue, Vermillion Fire, Red Pepper & Cosmic Blue.

Frosted Lime looks good with a white vinyl roof too

Plus an endless amount of US Ford colours

[tezxr8man]

Always loving the BLUEPRINT pearl of the AU's Ended up with a silouette XR8 ute but have blueprint pearl driveline now The motor will be done soon too
uh ohh need new pants now just made a mess

[BFZ Wagon]

I liked the Narooma Blue from the AU/BA range. But my absolute favourite is 'Shockwave'. Everytime I see a Ford in that colour I just wanna go over and give it a hug :P
For me personally, the colour blue seems to be a calming colour.
Although the newer 'Sensation' blue in the FG is nice, it's not as good as the old BA/BF 'Shockwave' blue colour.
I'd LOVE to own a Ford in 'Shockwave'! Ah well. I can dream.

Not yet, getting closer, should be painted December/January hopefully. I decided to stick with Sherwood Green after I saw an xc van painted in this colour in Performance Fords I think and it looked hard. I will post photos as soon as it is painted you can be sure of that.

Would love to see some photos of your gt though!

[Valid8]

Have to say I stare at a Falcon painted in Seduce, very nice.

[sly_ba]

bionic, seduce, mercury silver and Narooma Blue....... so many good colors.
