Must be us old farts, I was digging the calypso as well.

I also like the current choice as it is a nice color.

Why? I love Calypso...

Regardless, It looks really nice. Any other plans?

Both great colors but i would've stuck with Calypso...it's just too rare of a color to cover up.

The Calypso color was ok, but the paint was really faded at spots and needed to be redone and I couldn't see myself paying for a new Calypso paint job. As far as other plans, I'm just going to keep it stock for now except for the radio and speakers. I have replaced most of the trim pieces but the top is in great condition. The headlights are new and I like the look of these over the stock ones. I'm going to wire the little lights as daytime running lights if I can figure out a way to do it. Maybe someday I would like to make it a T5 but, will see. I bought it last spring and when I pulled it out of the garage in March to drive it to the painter it rolled 60k so I hope to enjoy it for a long time. Thanks for looking.

Looks great. I know a lot of people like Calypso, but I'm not very fond of it. It just doesn't look like a tough Mustang. That Bullit green color looks awesome. Good choice!
