This should be a cool thread. Everyone, chip in what your favorite color is on a car. I am hoping to see some pictures too, not just...I like candy apple red. Lets see some pics that you guys and girls have saved on your computer. I am looking for idea's for next year. I really like light or dark color blues. If you know what paint it is on the car you like, state it!

Mike with how much you like to change the color of your car, I think you need to go all vinyl like they do in Nascar. Only takes 'em a couple hours for each entire change.
BTW, I really think the color your car is now is pretty cool. It stands out and is bright without being annoying or girly.
Although if you want to tone down the sparkle, and stick with the blue, I've always been a fan of Laguna Seca Blue
As far as other stock colors go, although I hate mustangs, I liked the colors they offered in the 99+ models, another nice blue (azure blue)...

Only reason I am changing the color again for the last and final time is because I am re-doing some cosmetic body work to it. Changing some things on the body and front bumper and rear bumper so it all flows together now. I am planning on doing HOK Pearl Black on top, its a super dark black that is amazing, and the same color on the bottom. This time I think I am going to do a silver base coat though to make the blue a little darker, and NO flake at all. When I used all the flake last time, I went a little crazy, but thats because I wanted the car to REALLY stand out, and I must admit, it did stand out from the others, lol. Some liked it and some didnt. I now, do not. haha.

always a fan of blue, sad we never got a factory one. one shop quoted me $7K to change from black to this blue.
