    I like green with a metallic in it ... like mine. :D

    Look at "Legend Lime" that came on 2005-6 Mustangs. Looks a great deal like the color from 1968, yet updated.

    The actual color name if ordering the paint is different though. It was available on Focuses, as well.

    The only downside to this color is that it can photograph really well at times, and in other lighting it gets washed out. Now that I have typed this, the pic in my sig is looking washed out a bit ... Both colors look good in person, though.

    NEWSFLASH ... you've seen it here first, folks ...

    Frank said "Paint my car ..."

    :rofl2: Like that will happen ... :rofl2:

    So ... Frank, you and I are looking at the same color ... just another reason to like you, buddy ...

    Did a quick search and could not come up with the proper Mustang code ... it was 2005 and 2006 only. Lil and I were looking for one before buying the 2007 Black Beauty.

    A Mustang Legend Lime board member stated that the same paint is on the 2007 and 2008 Focus. The code is NZ - Kiwi Green. I have seen this color on a Focus in person and agree that it is the same paint.

    Happy Hunting ...

    PS ... at the rate I am going, Patches will be repainted before my Comet does. :yup: But, progress is being made ... my goal is to drive it to Silver Springs in January. Still won't be much to look at, but the interior will be brand new. Building the car inside-out ... :p

    That same orange is at the top of my list right now, with a deep candy red following closely in second!
