They should bring back a dark green. Since Ford likes to keep DHG for bullitt. Give us another dark green.

Like Dark Ivy Green Metallic like the 1965.

Why limit it to just a replacement of Sunset Gold? I think the current 2010 colour pallet is a bit thin for choice.

As well as the current colours, I want to see:

Grabber Orange
Screaming Yellow
Black Jade
Vapor Silver
A dark purple
An off white/cream
A dark emerald green (if not DHG)

I think the sunset is nice. I don't think I'd buy it but it works well on the car. That grabber green '10 looks awesome too. I don't think Kona is too dark, personally its my fav color at the moment.

Only because that's the color we know for sure won't be coming back next year..

I have always liked the metallic orange that Ford used on the Flex and Escape a couple of years ago, (can't remember the name). Dodge uses a color like it on the 1500 truck and the Nitro, called Sunburst Orange Pearl. My son did a photo chop of my '05 in this color.

I voted for the Grabber Green. At the present time i have an 07 Mopar product. My car before that was a 96 Taurus. My 96 Taurus seems to have had a much higher quality factory paint job than my 07 Mopar product i now have. My Dad's black 03 Taurus (he is getting a 2010 Taurus this spring) seems to have a very high quality factory paint job too. I feel, Ford has the best factory paint jobs. Ford's paint seems thicker and more durable than the competitors.

I don't think GO would look good on this body style, as it never really took off on the last. Same with green. GB is a solid color and seems to be pretty popular so far.

I do agree that we need some sort of royal blue. Kona is too dark and GB is too bright, how about Sonic or Blue Flame?

My vote went to Black Jade. Cool color, with the 19" track pack wheels, it would look killer.

I would definitely vote for Blue Flame to replace GB!

I think either a different shade of red or white would work. That gold is UGLY.

I don't think non-Bullitt Mustangs are going to have the priviledge to wear Highland Green so I voted for Black Jade. I personally think Grabber Green looks terrible.

I don't think we need any more reds. Torch red and the metallic (forget the name) are plenty. I would like to see them bring over the white tri-coat, or something like whitewater pearl from Mazda, since it doesn't look like an old man's Cadillac.

I personally hope if they plan to make another Bullitt, they don't us DHG again until then. GG is awful, looks like a drift car, and that Ivy is too close to DHG to work for me.

I totally forgot about comp. orange. Always liked that color.

Please Ford, don't go copying that awful Inferno Orange from the Camaro though.

Anything is better. FYI, Grabber Blue has ben around since the late 1960s.
