Dude ur my age, I wouldn't want to get a bright color if I were you. Colors like red and grabber orange, and even yellow will attract wayyyy to much attention, especially that of the cops. I'm sure you don't want tickets when ur 16. I know i don't. I've always liked dark moss green, even tho that wasn't an origional color from 68. My friend is painting his that color.

Redfire is a Ford color that started with the '03 Mustang.

I would start with whatever your favorite color is, then add some metallic of a complementing color to add a nice splash of pizzazz. No need to just use a color from a book...customize that thing!

As far as reds are concerned, my 03 Mach is "Torch Red". I like it for a bright red color.
