They will make as many as people order. We wont know the rarest until 2006 production starts.

with the popularity of yellow that past few years, i'm guessing it will be around in the middle. i'm guessing Legend Lime will be the most rare...followed by Windveil Blue.

I would say legend lime. I see quite a few yellow cars out there. Many people won't like lime because it's a little to unique for some. I for one happen to like both.

I haven't seen a lime or yellow in area lots yet, but I'm betting yellow will become more prevalent as we start seeing more GTs.

agreed. if you look at the production #'s from the past few years, the Yellows have been right around the middle, in fact, they beat out Sonic Blue a couple of times. will be interesting to see the final #'s when the 2006's hit the dealerships.

Legend Lime at least. MY06 will feature Lime Gold, from 1967.

Yellow is one of the more popular colors the last few years on most sports cars but it seems to come and go every few years. Screaming Yellow looks like it has done well for Ford and hence the reason it was carried over.

Heres my guesses.

Best selling in no set order: Black, Redfire, Torch Red, Silver

Middle sales but will probably be discontinued: M. Grey, W. Blue, Sonic Blue

Worst: White, Lime

Yeah I think your right. White will be another rare color. Just doesn't look right on this body style for some reason (unless you get some racing stripes or something).

BlackRiderX. I think you may be right about the W & S Blue. But for sure they'll just come out with another form of blue that's close to previous years colors. Maybe bring back the true blue. And the M Grey may disappear for another year or so. But I defiently think it has potiential to reappear. I mean it's already been avaible in 01 & 02 & was then replaced by Dark Shadow Grey. But it's back this year. And if you look at th previous post by Justin both years it was avaible it was a pretty popular colr. It was top in 02.

So, yeah they may discontinue it after this year but I don't think it will be the last we see of it. If anything I think the tourch red, l lime, & sonic blue will be discontinued. W Blue may stick around but if so I don't think we'll see it after 06. But that's all JMO.
