People love the color Breeze!

[turbodewd]

Ok, that was the third time in recent memory that total strangers have complimented my XR6 on its color. This time i was driving past 2 fellas in a carpark and my window was down and i could hear them as I passed. Ive had teenage girls comment and some other fella ask for the name of the color so he could use it on some project.

Ford should always keep the most popular colors, why fiddle with success!??!?!

They should bring back Blueprint as well.

This is Breeze in the middle:

EF GLi used to be popular in that colour too

[SEZ213]

They should bring back octane as well... And I'll have one of each... ;)

[RedHotGT]

Everglade Green (circa 1990s) was always my choice...

[Ford_The_Win]

I love the newer version they've brought out on the FG2, similar colour but a bit more green, looks awesome. I think it's called swift?

[DJM83]

Breeze is a fantastic colour. As for blueprint I reckon it looks a lot better on AU's than it did on BA's.

[johnsmith]

My favourite colour was Seduce.. unfortunately was discontinued. Thought it looked particularly awesome on a Mk2 G6E.

[turbodewd]

I just wished Ford would let us have any damn color we want on the G series. And same with the leather interior, i am sick of black/charcoal being only choice inside the XRs. Again, G series get the choice of Kashmir which is what i want nextime, i.e 2014.

Breeze is a bloody nice colour and also not that common, I would of liked one but Dash popped up first.

People either love it or hate it lol.

That's my color, baby! Everyone loves it. I have people telling me to wind my window down so they can compliment it.

I was talking to a car salesmen recently who told me he has been on the lookout for a Bf xr6 for about 8 months. I asked why he hadn't got one yet and he said it had to be in breeze. He wouldn't even consider any other colour. He said its really hard to find any in the colour let alone a good clean example. The bright and different colours should be brought back modern cars seem now to only come in 5 shades of grey or silver.

Interestingly enough had a work mate a not bother to purchase a new xr6 ute (FG2) because he couldn't get any colour he liked. He wanted something vibrant and different. He asked for nitro blue which is no longer offered the purple which is no more the bright green which is also no more. looking over the colour choices it was the usual selections of black grey whites and silvers. So he didn't bother. If they still made Nitro he would have bought one there and then.

Breeze is one of my absolute favourite colours I've ever seen on a car! I love it!

Breeze, Octane and Seduce have to be some of my favourites.

[XBROO]

Ford always had nice colours, that's why you see a lot on old school holdens.

[Bluehoon]

Shockwave! Best damn blue ever! BA of BF XR in shockwave turns my head eveytime.

[4.0i_SiX]

I actually really liked Bionic

[Big Bird 17]

Go rapid!

[Bonn]

Breeze is magnificent, Octane is fantastic too - would be hard to pick either, when new. It's sad Ford discontinues them - our neighbour has a Viper FG for instance - another legacy...
Breeze & Octane always distract me whilst driving - hey! That's probably why they're discontinued.
p.s. Ego has bright green sparkles when the sun hits it, and i like that too.

[paule11]

We went with Neo liked Breeze just as much

Ive had a few people comment. But it's become real popular, someone at work bought one. Theres 2 up the road from me and I have seen a couple of in various parts of Canberra. Dealer keeps getting them in stock. He had 3 in stock when I bought mine, they all sold, and now theres 3 more at one of the dealerships.

I bought swift because I had not seen any on the road. Then I buy one, and every man and his dog has one.

[mcnews]

Swift is nice colour

I have an Octane FG XR8 and to this day, still get comments on the colour. Also had a Blueprint XR6 and got comments on that when it first came out.

Not sure about bringing them back though, I like the exclusivity

[Silver Ghia]

Sorry, I don't understand what the fuss about Breeze is all about.... just another colour.

Nice colour red on that car on the right though.
In the last 10 years or so Ford seemed to have problems getting the mid-red colours vixen-venom right IMO. Holden reds seem better to me for some reason.

[SEZ213]

Good point!

[mr smith]

Ford should always have a nice blue in the mix. Current offering is off the mark.
Blueprint and Nitro are some of the best colours ever.

No way nothing fades like a holden red! i know of 3 VZ'ds that the paint job is washed out or the clear coat is peeling off, especially on the roof and boot.

But a car is all about the colour! i was looking to buy a GS but it was a case of 9 monochrome colours out of 12 except for kinetic, mars red and vixen!

Looks like they employed the paint picker from toyota or BMW

When the cook and I went looking for a new BFII we fell in love with a 07 Typhoon in Breeze with dark argents stunning looking car. Dealer wouldn't come to the party on a decent trade so buy the time we had the folding she was gone ......so we picked one up in Neo, also a fantastic short lived color......but in the end there can be only one....and that's Winter White for me

On a side note a good friend has a FG XR8 in Breeze and the stone chipping on the bonnet is horrendous. Very thin and chips easily.

I was only looking at the colour, reds in general don't last too well in the sun.

Actually Toyota and BMW reds look OK as well IMO.

Good point.

New Mazda6 charge $240 for plain red...but its "Takumi-Nuri paint technology..enhanced reflective treatment with high chroma pigment to achieve stunningly vivid depth and contrast." apart from Ford Focus orange, never seen a plain colour charged extra for. Metallics are nco.
