FTO AUSTRALIA

i think it should be that new Primer RED of the Falcon GT give it that woggy unfinished look of "i still gotta respray my car" hahaha


either that or dogshit brown

Dog sh*t brown...

Mikey go with metallic hot pink that is so bright that it is visable from orbit (there's an S14 here in Canberra with that colour and when you look at it while the sun is shining you will go blind for 2 1/2 days... )

After I win the lotto I will be spraying my car with a jet black base coat with a blood cherry red pearl over the top.. sort of like those skirts chicks wear, where the skirt is blood red and has a black mess material over the top if you've ever seen that before... does everyone understand that or am I rambling

Robb...

what sort of heterosexual male in the right state of mind would paint his car PINK???

looks like Canary yellow is a go-er at this stage....

have you thought about chamelion

dont go mitsu canary yellow, i convinced my gf to get a canary yellow lancer, and after we got it, i hate driving it i feel like a poof, cause it draws too much attention and is just a lancer, if you want yellow make sure u get the nice yellow like the monary or porshes

yeah i dont think i'd go respray canary yellow,
i would be happy with the limited edition yellow fto though

It doesn't what type of yellow it is, you will still get loads of attentions.

considered 'spew' yellow ? with green pearl to resemble the peas

yellow looks crap when it fades and it fades faster than most other colours.

yeah it fades very very bad, though you are proberbly used to fade having a red car, but yellow is still twice as bad, you will need to polish it around every 3 months

When i had my yellow beetle, i just take it to those hand polish car wash place, & polish it every week (even though its bad for the car). So i didn't notice any fade.

But yeah i've seen some really ugly faded one.................

what about the metalic blue on the new ford XR8

remember it's just a suggestion
and if you're going for originality... then I'm pretty sure it'll be original... except for that S14 that Robb mentioned...
whatever coloured car you drive.. yellow, pink etc.. you've gotta be confident with your self.. not the colour of your car or shirt

in a room full of beatiful models/women... not the most beautiful woman stands out.. it's the one who's most confident and knows how to carry herself... she may not be most most beautiful... but certainly becomes the most memorable and stands out ...
anyways.. back to the topic

if a lady FTO owner is thinking of a respray... imagine a light pink shade with white pearl

with your choices.. i'll go for white.. especially if you like CF's .. they seem to stand out more with white.

yes i'm thinking of the canary yellow shade exactly like the one on Monaros...

the mitsi factory yellow (dandelion) looks kinda *~dreamy~* coz the color is not as 'rich' as i want it... over time it'll look just like dull egg yolk color.

if you see me end up with a bright pink FTO, then you know i've been smoking too much joint and that will never happen... LoL

but thanks for the feedback everyone, keep 'em coming.

oh btw, chameleon / harlequin is strictly out of the question... at nearly $1k per litre, it's just too expensive...

yeah , it aint cheap,
fto's look lush with chamelion, one of our members from the uk has some links to his pics somewhere in the forums, with gullotine style doors is i remember correctly
If i had a spare 5k i know what i would do with it.......the above mods and if any change spend the rest on hookers and booze

yep that'll be Mark's FTO (with the scissor doors)...

i'd be suicidal to see bird sh*t on my bonnet if i had that paint on my car...

please no chamelion! sorry guys i think it looooks really trashy!

Ok this is a little off topic but the other night me and mate went to the movies (Butterfly Effect) when we left I got into his car and looked across and there was a brand new VY Common-hore next to us in that new SS metallic green colour (which would look good on an FTO imo.)

Any wha hooie some prick had key'd the car with squiggly lines and apart from the centre of the bonnet and the centre of the roof there was not a single place you could touch without there being a scratch on it.. I mean every part of every panel had been key'd including the rear wing light covers and even the rims.. would have taken 10 mins to do that much damage.. how much hatered could you have to do that to someones car???
