ok, so I'm reeeeally fishin' here BUT... :D
I was just wondering if the next LTD Ed. colour or a new colour could possibly be "Top Banana Yellow"? I was over at the Dodge website and noticed that they're comin' out with a new colour for the new charger and I noticed a similarity between Desert Gold and Dodge's Go manGo Orange as well as their new off-white which is reeeeeally close to our beloved ButterCream.
I AM NOT DISSING the EBMM R&D or the colour dept. but it looks to me like MM might take a few colour cues from the automotive industry WHICH IS A GOOD THING (i think) if that is the case....
anywho, back to my upright and figuring out the excat hangar at Area 51 that has the "greys" :p

I'm pretty sure it wont be avocado green (remember, green doesn't sell...).

Maybe EBMM should improve the texture, not only the color ; for exemple : coconut- like body cover, botanical foam covered body, or crushed glass varnish (not on the neck or the slides will be bloody)...

lava pearl desert gold saphire egyptian smoke are all colors from our relationship with BMW. The girl that did the different color palates was the same person in charge of the Rolls Royce Phantom.

So the automotive connection was a good guess - just off a bit on which automobile it was!

Remember the Surf Green 1957 Chevy?

Seems to me an "oasis" color would fit in there just fine.... prolly wouldn't sell though, since it implies "green" :eek:

Cool on the BMW connection - my best friend works at their dealership in Hartford CT, and regularly stops by when road-testing vehicles!

Hot damn! ;) now that that's solved I can move onto how the caramel DOES get into the Caramilk bar and the true effects of eating the red Smarties last...... hehehe

seriously though, thanks BP for that info. , and BTW, great job with the new Steve Morse/ SM Y2D page. The videos are great.

pd

ps. the Phantom, definitely a bit more prestigious a position than being the interior person on the Gremlin
