...I saw a small pic and asked James (the photographer) for the original (2.8MB)

I shrank it to just under 200kb so that I could upload it.

Here you go.....this colour is sweet Torch, redfire, torch, redfire

It's a nice color but I feel it'll capture too much attention from la policia.

Also notice that the black insert is the first version. The production version of the black insert will have a honeycomb pattern which looks 100x better!

I believe this is why many, including myself, haven't totally been sold on the black insert based on pics. Now I remember why I liked it on the Lime so much at Ford of Canada HQ.

I know Kap'n, but man, everyone will be looking with a colour like that.

I've seen Torch Red Machs coming a mile away. I love that. I just have to pick my spots and try not to get pulled over.

I drive a Sonic Blue Escape and I love the color not too bright and not too dark. It's just right.

Speaking of red though, I have heard that police pull people over more often if they speed in a bright red car. Better yet, I've heard a bright red car and lead to an increase in insurance. This true? I really don't know match about that stuff. :P

Yeah, thats my problem. I love torch red, but I may get tired of such a bright car. The black has my name on it.

Any reason the lower center insert doesn't have honeycomb in it? Here it is with the rest of the insert painted body colored:
