Ford - FPV New BF Range

Ford Shows True Colours

Ford has released an exciting new range of colours, to complement the BF Falcon and SY Territory range.

Since the introduction of the BA Falcon in September 2002, the Falcon colour palette has successfully delivered a unique range that caters to the wide variety of Falcon customers.

Two new exterior paint colours, Menace and Kashmir, have been introduced in the lead up to BF Falcon and SY Territory, while another five colours announce the arrival of the new generation models, including the first use of Chromaflair® paint by an Australian manufacturer:

Menace

a bold purple with an intense blue highlight, this daring metallic hue is sure to excite the sports enthusiast. Menace is only available on Falcon XR and FPV models.

Kashmir
a luxurious mid-tone European grey with golden undertones that radiates timeless elegance. Kashmir is available on the Falcon passenger range, excluding XR models, as well as Fairlane, LTD and Territory.

Toxic

beyond citrus, this new acidic yellow green is sure to turn heads. Toxic is only available on Falcon XR and FPV models.

Bionic

an explosive and exciting new blue full of energy and life. Bionic is only available on Falcon XR and FPV models.

Wired

a warm, copper metallic, rich with warmth and sophistication. Wired is available on Falcon passenger, excluding XR models, as well as Fairlane, LTD and Territory.

DéJàVu
a classic, dark emerald green full of depth. Déjà Vu is available on all Falcon passenger models, including Falcon XR and FPV, as well as Falcon Ute, Fairlane, LTD and Territory models.

Fantasy
a vivid chameleon colour full of power, with high chromaticity and dramatic effects, which constantly changes its personality from royal purples to an amazing new blue. Fantasy is only available on Falcon XR models.

Set to become an iconic colour, the release of Fantasy marks the first use of revolutionary Chromaflair® paint technology in volume production within Australia.

Unlike the special-effect pigments of the early 1980s, which showed a subtle shift in shade, these next-generation colour-shifting pigments take on a completely different hue depending on the angle of view or light source projected upon them.
