I am just looking to see what everyone's personal favorite color is on contours (factory paint only...as if we go custom colors this thread could be and endless dicussion and war of the colors). I personally own an RD (Teal-type color) 1995 Contour GL, but i like the FL colored 'tours (T-red). so, what's your favorite color?

I would like silver frost stock. Of course lime green custom. Sorry had to throw that in.

I have and like the T-Red but i also really like the silver frost and tropic green
Black is best when clean. When it's dirty, I'd pick silver.
cabaret red and midnight red
like the medium steel blue and champaque also
^^^^ Ohhh, I Like Dat One!! Seriously, that is my all time personal favorite car on all of CEG. Only partly because that's my favorite color for a Contour.

Favorite 98+ SE/GL/LX color: the color of my own Contour! (T-red with gray interior)
Favorite pre-98 color: Champagne (with obviously beige interior, as that's all they were offered with)
Favorite SVT color: T-red with midnight blue interior
Second favorite: Black with tan (SVT), or black with gray (SE/GL/LX).
I'm surprised so many people like the silver frost. Oh well, leaves more of the rest for me
(silver is my least favorite on the Contour!)
i love my champaigne GL, which will be T-red in summoer of 04, cause i like that color better! and it goes with the beige interior.
It's hard to pick a favorite color. I had a Deep Navy Tour that would almost change colors and you just can't beat it when it's clean. Same for T-Red and Pitch Black. I really dig some of the pre-98 colors though, like pink and the blue posted above. Yeah, I'd pimp a pink 1995 SE.

Moonlight Blue.
It changes colors depending on the sun. It the dusk it looks like the pictures there, in the day it looks like the pictures in my sig.
i used to like silver frost the best, but couldnt find a silver svt around here, settled for t-red and now it's my fav!

Have to agree on the post 98 Navy Blue.
my vote goes for the color of my possibly soon to be resurrected 95 se...midnite or moonlight blue whichever one it is...same color as mr. kinley's tour
T-red with gray leather interior!
Tropic Green of course! 2nd Moonlight Blue of 95-96, 3rd T-Red.
Least favorites: 98-99 tan (Camry clone color
), 2000 Chestnut brown (chocolate)
, and the most infamous 1995 Coral Mist (pink)
.

1. Silver Frost
2. Tropic Green
White?
But seriously folks... I really like the moonlight blue with black as my second choice.
Ive said it once and Ill stick by it. Referring to black cars, nothing looks better when clean, nothing looks worse when dirty.

WERD!!! I like T-red but that Blue post above is just sexy. I dont think you could get much better then that
T-red for me, of course I'm biased. LOL And to think I never wanted red cars or even liked red all that much until now.

Agreed!
My favorite is teal blue with a close second being moonlight blue . My third favorite would be tropic green .
I prefer black the best. It makes me strive to do a better detailing job everytime

TROPIC GREEN AND THE FACT THAT IT'S SO RARE MAKES IT EVEN BETTER.
Most seem to like the color of their car, let me add to that list and be the first for Lt. Denim Blue. Not very many of them either. I do like T-Red also.

I'm a little bias but I've seen only a very few contiques my colour, so that and Green on Tan
Hey BK post me a shot of your Navy Blue cuz I think mine is, for some reason, a different navy(royal?) blue.
Here's mine...
Thanks
:EDIT:Oh and if we were counting the favorite's that's
Blue=18
Red=18
Black=6
Green=7
Silvie=10
Champagne=hehe 3 Yaaa
well I love black to but only when its clean that is why i said werd
A while back, someone on here had a Maroonish looking paint on their Tour. It was not red. It was a deep maroon. It was beautiful.
Also, around here in Charleston, I have seen several Tours with this Charcoal color on them. Makes it look real sleek. I am thinking about repainting the Tour with that color.
I've got Maroon (sorry no pics), but I personally like the SVT Black on Black/Grey.
EDIT: Muh Bads, I've got the T-Red, damned Newbies.
Probably was midnight red, it's maroonish in color. Pics in my sig if you want to verify that it's the color you're talking about.

I'm not sure what color code mine is but thats my favorite color. Light hits the paint and changes very cool.

i have the same color on my 95...i think its called moonlight blue
i hadnt seen those pics in awhile...reminds me when i wanted svt focuswheels
Mine has this purple color that changes kind of when you look at. Its factory, but have no idea what the color name is. Ill have to look at the window sticker.
Blaze
Black Cherry I think is tha color....cant tell its not black till your all up on it!
Its definitely purple. It changes a little when you walk around it because it has like a pearl effect to it.
i know the one, its on the tauri and windstarz...
I think its called melina blue I know there are some coogs out there with this color.
I've seen a couple pre-98 GLs in a dark silver/anthracite type color. I would love an SVT with it.
SILVER FROST REPRESENT. but i love the blue and t-red right below it
I like pacific green, Ive acctually been asked if it was my factory paint
Sliver and midnight blue. Midnight blue I would prefer first though. Bad!!
Desert Violet:
(pic courtesy of:
http://www.cardomain.com/id/toronto420)I had a '96 GL that colour...I miss it.
I wanna paint my '98 that colour but I think it would look stupid with my midnight blue interior...What do U all think?
1995 had some wacky colors offered.
Here is what the "Coral" pink loooks like:
95 pink mysty And here is light green, don't remember the factory name:
mint green Tour
