Nice. Congrats on your purchase. LE is pretty good value for money. My only wish would have been for satnav.

I've seen heaps of new Falcons in that colour...I don't blame them, it looks absolutely amazing and seems to be very popular...

Went to E Creek for V8 Test Day, which was great.
As we got there, a gentleman was leaving in an OCTANE FG XR8 (no stripes, just as you like 'em) and gave it a massive bootful - Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeettt!!!!!! - and that was with the standard Semi Active Exhaust system. You really notice the exciting colours on these grey overcast/drizzly days...........

I'm not really too fussy with colours when it comes to cars but I'd say Fantasy is the stand out in the Falcon range by far.

Saw a Blueprint BA XR and had to have one. It also had to be manual. those were my only two conditions on buying one.
I have a project XD that is ready for paint, and I've decided on Phantom for it, because it's got a lot of chrome goodies on it as well. Other favourites are Breeze, Seduce, Fantasy, Swift, Neo, Viper, and Congo Green. Bionic, Toxic and Octane definitely stand out as well, but I don't know that I could live with them. If my workmate ever successfully talks me into becoming the next SSS Racing entry at the drags with him, then I'd pick one of those colours. Mum's friend bought an XR in Envy, but I can't say I'm a fan of that colour. Gotta say I prefer the VE Holden colour 'Poison Ivy'. Trying to talk Dad into painting his B model Mack truck that colour!

And damn....... just look at all them optional accessories.
Fantasy definitely does it for me. I love chameleon colours. The EL GT colour Sparkling Burgundy is pretty sweet too.
