Yeah nice colour - a darker shade of Reef Green as mentioned above is the best description.

Very very nice. What about that maroon/blood red type colour, I have only just started seeing it recently.

You dont mean Polynesian Green, or something along those lines, not sure on the spelling.

Yeah i'm a fan of that deep red colour as well. Seen a couple of them getting around. They really look classy esp on the fairmont ghia's. Gotta say ford bring out the best colours for the falcons. Its good to see they're not scared of mixing it up.

That's right it's a deep green. Breeze is much lighter.
