Amen. My first car started out life a a Poly-Gold Glow Yellow 73 Mach-1 which was lipstick red by the time I bought it. And I thanked God for that color change every time I looked at the car.

I think they should call it "Bass Boat Gold" (I hope everyone gets the reference, or I am just an idiot)

Although, I saw a 09 F-150 in this color a few weeks ago, looks kinda cool

When I was young I wanted hair like Greg Brady... Well I now have have Greg Brady's hair... Receding and gray... LOL!

Anyway, I guess another Mustang II (Mustang II II?) and a revival of Disco Music is not far behind!

This is the only car I ever liked in gold, I was 8 years old, and my best friends extremely hot mom drove one. They made 2500 and she had one, they also made 500 in red and black, but I've never seen one of those.



Flame on, but this looks good for 1980.

I prefer to call that color Bile Metallic or Puke Sunburst Metallic. Because thats the exact shade of yellow it is. And regards my sentiments pretty well too.

You're of course entitled to your feelings, and this is the reason why more than one color is made. But just because you don't like it doesn't mean it shouldn't be offered. I happen to love it! You can see how the same color in 1970 changed depending on the light that shining on it. I've seen some F-150s driving around and this color looks great in sunlight!

And some more:









I don't think I'll convince the haters, but you can see how different the same color can look in different lights on different shapes, especially in this 71/2/3 vert.

To each their own... its not for me. Some people thought Purple was a terrible and girly color to offer the Plymouth Prowler in, I thought it was the 2nd best one. But in all honesty, the 69-73 color is more gold or copper...which is ok for those who like it but the focus is definitely bile...i've seen my dog produce the same color after bad kibble

And the focus itself is hideous...

I agree totally!
When I saw the first picture this is the exact car I was thinking of.
I think the black accents help alot.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

But seriously, I think Ford should kick up their colors. High priced imports like Lexus, BMW or Mercedes have amazing colors. Getting a classier color palate would really help their image and it doesn't cost anything.
