I always liked the brave blue for the factory color. I had a vert that color and i got complimented on it all the time. But for a custom color i would say a burnt red or orange loks very good and not distasteful. I once had a 85 se that was a factory tornado black and it looked awesome too.

I know that mazda always had a sexy red too but god so many were made in that color.

blue is pretty damn rare. I almost never see them, but they look awesome. My car is Noble White.

I looked and looked for a Turbo II under 94k miles. Hapened to find a blue one (harbor blue metallic), and with the poll results, I'm happy I did. (white and black are too common [the only other higher voted colors]) It's my first car. check my Vb garage and tell me what you think. Car cost $5,000 do you think it was a good buy?

Metallic blue, white and black IMO are the best FC colors.

Personally I like black, white, forest green like posted earlier in here, and of course Flame Yellow Pearl as seen on my FC.

most of the people voting like black and white.....I wonder if that's due to a lack of imagination....honestly black and white are kinda bland. btw, I'm not being a h8r my rex is Crystal White and i love it, but that doesn't mean its the best option available.....

I don't like any of those colors, but the color I really like is Ford's medium garnet red, kinda looks like blood, love that color, getting my 86 painted that color in about a month.

i second the Tornado Silver Metallic. Black is nice and all, but i've owned a few...and the amount of work you have to put into it just to keep it clean (which is the only time it really looks nice) is just too much.

Nismo 400R blue. Its so pretty. And pretty. Be mindful that this image is photoshopped but is the color I am planning on having put on my 88 GTU. So thanks to Krok for the CAR chop and to DerangedHermit for the rest of the chop.

Black or white. Black look good with S5 taillights.

Not a great shot but there were a couple of hemi-orange sevens at VIR last year that I thought looked great. The picture just doesn't do justice to the color. They looked a lot deeper when they were in the paddock area.
