I can't wait to see it in person outside.....I will either get this or Garnet Red, I think they both look terrific.

I want the best blue possible, I hope they do have an option that looks like that vette blue. I was going to ask about fading but I put so much zaino on my cars, no worries there

I agree with you, but since it took from 2010 until now to get this blue....I think we are lucky to get this one....lol

Just hoping they make this longer than 6 months like ABM.

The amount and color of the metallic in the paint has a lot to do with that too.

I completely agree with you. I was just stating facts in my post. A color like sunset orange metallic from the 4th gen's and red rock like you have imo pop as well as a color like crystal or garnet red.

While it's true that some simple metallics have a nice "pop" to them at a distance, when you get closer they often don't look so great, because that "pop" is created by using large, densely packed, and sometimes multi-color metallic flakes that look garish when seen up close. More expensive multi-stage processes using a much smaller flake (mica) fare much better in that regard.

Hello guys I'm new here and stalking this thread because I have a Foxbody Rustang (thought you all might like that) ha, and I'm thinking of painting it this color. This is a ground up restoration with a 900hp motor so I won't be wasting the color on a hunk of junk like many fox bodies hanging around . I realize I'm in enemy waters but I had a few questions if I could? First, does this color have any purple to it? I'm sort of color blind but all the ford blues I can see purple clear as day. Next, is this car and color out yet to look at? Last, does anyone know the color code? My engine bay is getting all smoothed this week and sprayed very soon. Thanks!

I don't think there is any purple in it. You will have to catch it at the next event to see it.
