If your into the X series dark greens: Here's Sherwood Green



Zircon Green is also good:



Deep Ivy is fairly rare



A bit more modern is Harvest Green



or Congo Green



Then again early Mustang Greens are good:

1968 Highland Green ( the Bullitt Mustang colour)



1966 Ivy Green



1967 Dark Moss Green



or 1971 Dark Green Metallic

I love blood orange which is why I bought my XR8 in it. The funny thing is, I'd probably never buy another blood orange car.

I guess it feels like a fad colour to me - loved the colour, owned a car in it and I'm now over it. Same with the purple that came with the BA. Loved it when it came out and considered getting mine that colour but not much of a fan of it now.

Red is probably my favorite colour and have owned several of them over the years. Was about a day away from my current car being red but the morons registered it and used it as a demo (and there was only 3 R32 reds in the country).

Blueprint would be my all time fav, but Vermillion fire is bloody awsome, also love Phantom purple, and Regency red, the yellow XY colour was also cool, not sure what its called though

stick to original xc colours, I have seen many older cars painted in modern colours and I reckon they don't look as good. I love my tropicana green but like XC's in yellow or the pale blue ice blue looking colour

A few to mention:
Acid Rush really took my eye when it came out
Mulberry
Wild Violet
Burnt Orange also looked quite good.
And of course, Henry Ford Black

Im in the same situation trying to select the colour for my XC ute...
Its got to be a red..

Trying to decide if i keep it Red Flame.. Add a Metalic to the the Red Flame, or go with Infra-Red.....

May add a bonnet stripes like a XYGT..

Will be getting the R/P blackouts as per factory and maybe a set of convo-pros...


Choices.. Choices... Choices...
