Whats everyones favorite color for a car, be it mustangs, GTO etc. Not chevay fan but if you like it thats your problem ;D. No but really I think it would be cool to know. Obviously my car would be either a mustang...year one of course or a GTO and i would choose a midnight blue kind of color. Dont know if thats a choice for cars name wise but it is a model paint, its a really really dark blue almost black at night but during the day its such a dark blue its almost got a touch of purple in it for character. anyways thats my choice whats everyone elses =)

---always off topic huh---

I'm also a fan of dark blues (Oxford Blue, for example). Midnight blue is a little dark for my tastes, however.

The nice thing dark blue on a car is that it's light enough to hide flaws (unlike black), but dark enough so that reflections dance across it when it's buffed (like black).

I have several favorite Mustang colors: Candyapple Red, Tahoe Turquoise, Grabber Lime, Grabber Blue, and Vintage Burgundy.

I've owned cars with both and what I like about the color is you don't see it too much. :eek:
Don't get me wrong, I love candyapple red on a Stang but I see it just too much ;)

Being a nut on originality, I like whatever the car was painted when it left the factory!! I have to say, though, I would probably pass on a Seafoam Green car (ugh!).

You dissing my sea foam green car! Jeez Russ!

Actually, I really don't own a sea foam car - and i'll agree, no sea foam is ever going to wash up in my garage! (Pun Intended)

My car right now is Candyapple Red, I love the color - but I'm a buff for stock colors - so I'm putting it back to Gulfstream Aqua (That color okay for your liking Russ?)

I thought that I would add that my wife's favorite Mustang color is Emberglo ('66). I like that color a lot, too.

Well lets see! My CS is white, my Ford XL Conv is Candy Apple Red, My Sunbeam Tiger is Red, My Fairlane Conv. is Acapulco Blue and my Boss 351 is Black but for sheer nostalgia, I like the Pewter Metallic (silver grey) that was on my 72 Mach 1 HO. ;D
