They should offer '67 - '72 Colours, to send Falcon out with a bang.
Reef Green, Vermillion Fire, Track Red, Diamond White and a few i've forgotten....

Red Pepper, Lime Glaze we could go on and on
Was the BA made with a lot of the old school colours just renamed?

No. You can't run old school colours through paint shop. It would have to go through the whole testing purpose again.

Providing they used the same paint codes, like they did with Octane.

Just an observation.
Comparing the number of pages / views of this thread compared to any on the new Mustang. Is there any significance in this?

For one, we all know what the Mustang looks like, have a fairly rough idea of price, know it won't be here for quite a while and all the related specs. The Falcon is the last of the Falcons! Would say 98% can relate to the Falcon more and have more chance of owning one. Also ..... and probably the main factors ....... we are all discussing what it will look like and specs associated with it. Bit of a given really .....

I've driven about 1000kms in them over the past few days.
They should have been unveiled by now but marketing wanted to keep them covered for a bit longer. I'm assuming because of GTF? |

Obviously can't say much. The styling should be a winner IMO.

If Ford were taking colour requests I'd only have one to suggest, Phantom!

Mandarin was available on BA,BA2 and there was one BF FPV painted in Mandarin. Was a great colour when new but has aged terribly with fading and poor colour matches on plastics.

If the new Xr8 looks as good as that black one ,I think I will be waiting more than 3 months I waited for my BA Xr8 when ordered,as they can only build 7 or 8 engines a day

I can give an example, at the time I owned a BA wagon and was shown the new Terry well before it's release and mentioned I thought the BA had better NVH then the Terry. I'm no expert but the feedback matched up with other non-company testers and was part of a effort to just increase the work in this area before the next round of evaluation vehicles were built. |
