The oranges Mandarine & Blood Orange are my 2 favorites
Then the blacks dunno which I like best probably the pearl black? that was on the EB GTs etc
Cobalt blue that was also on the EB GT & ED Sprint was nice as was the saphire on the last of the ELs

Yes it does fade quite noticably(something to do with the plastics sealer used as undercoat)
Also the original factory bodykits on the ED XR's were a rubber that flexed a hell of a lot, which caused the clearcoat to blister & come off in large round sections(as anyone with original paint will no doubt agree)
Never heard of cobalt blue being used on the window trims - were all black unless I'm mistaken.
Cobalt blue was originally launched with the EBGT in Oct 92, & was 1 of 3 EBGT colours. It was not available on any other vehicle til the ED release in July 93 where it became part of the 'prestige paint option'(basically available on XR / Fairmont / Fairmont GHIA) & was to be discontinued with the intor of the EF range. There were however a small run of EF XR's done in Cobalt Blue - prior to the intro of its replacement (Navy Blue)

Hmm, E Series is an easy choice.....'Everglade'.

Apart from that 'Blood Orange' and the new one, 'Shockwave', in the BA series.

1) "Emerald Black" such as on my EB :hihi:
2) "Cobalt Blue" such as on EBGTs
3) Some awesome blue/green/aqua colour that came out on AUIII XRs, I saw an XR6 with a Rebel kit in this colour, plus 18" Azzurros (sp?) :

There's my $200NZ (2c)
