Colours Could Orange be the new Red/Black/Silver - Page 2

This thread was going fine until someone had to post a picture of a F**d, if its not bad enough as Dawsons avatar

.

The orange of the concept if it is that Orange is a far better colour than the F**d Orange, besides, you could smear the Civic in s**t and it would still look better then the F**d, reason, it doesn't have a F**d badge on it.

On that topic I once asked a F**d dealer if I could get the steering wheel on a Mondedo without the badge (before I could choose my own car), he was quite upset when I answered the question "why?", I told him although its not a bad car I don't want to be constantly reminded it was a F**d. Didn't even offer me a test drive....

Richierich... You're definitively a naughty boy !

Remember, the Ford dealer have to work everyday with the badge close to him !

Unlikely, can't see Honda naming a new colour 'Halfords orange'...

Tangerine guesswork...

This:

Becomes this:

It's too dull, needs to be brighter and more metallic.

Not Criticizing your photoshop skills, I'm talking about the colour, I really hope they brighten the shade if it does happen.

Alwaysblack · 4th August 2007, 00:17

That colour is vile.
I cannot imagine that colour looking nice on anything, let alone a car.
The ealier one which was much brighter was OK but tangerine?
Yuk!

Pottsy · 4th August 2007, 08:48

I suspect digital cameras have real trouble with tangerine. Here's another tangerine but this time taken in sunlight, with some variations of that colour applied to the Civ:

MMMmmmm, what ever floats your boat.

That Honda Element is nearly as ugly as a Skoda Roomster
