I have yet to see the Green in real life , will be doing this week. It’s looks very Olive green to me unless I’m sunlight . I find the Fighter Jet Grey looks more sporty, especially with handling pack . Please share any other images you have

The green can best be described as lush.

I’d say it’s the best colour, I wouldn’t say it look olive, at its worst it’s BRG.

I'll never understand people who buy winter grey cars. If you're buying a Shouty car, order a Shouty colour.

(Yes, my 2005 Mustang is silver but it wasn't new when I bought mine. I always wanted the orange Parnelli Jones one).

Thanks for images Legacy .

I actually find images of the Fighter Jet colour more shouty than the Eruption Green, the appearance pack stands out more and the splitter, rear spoiler stands out more with Handling pack. But I’ve yet to see Green in person so will reserve judgment

I think you're going to be pleasantly surprised.

Is it brand new you're looking at? And, where?

Hi Jim ,Perrys had three brand new fighter jet grey manual Mach 1's for sale ready for March registration but only one with Recaro seats

which they sold this morning. might be worth a call to Grace to see if she has one .

Sold my F430 last summer, did you sell your 360 ,it's only i'd consider going for one but it must be a manual,

buzz me a email if you still have it,thanks

Will probably have been me smile

Just to let you know Sagman, I paid 54K for mine, manual with standard seats. Having owned both, I'd say the standard seats are better than the Recaros.

My mach 1 was ordered with Recaro seat but arrived with the standard climate seats as it was at the old price I didn,t upset myself but still would sell on at a later date and replace the car with the seat upgrade wonder what the plaque numbers go up to .

I was in Randolph Street this morning getting a mot and noticed your Mach 1 on the way home,

That shade of green paint really popped in the sun ,haven't seen another one in that colour.
