Default Finally pics of my 88 "Tropical Yellow"? Notch

Whats up guys. i posted a pic of my car a few weeks ago with my phone and it was a crappy pic, but one of you said it was "not a common" color tropical yellow. i always thought it was biege w/ "peanut butter" interior. it is an 88 notch with color code 66B. it has like 43125 mile on it, yes original (i knew the owner, so yes everything is "true" about it) with original paint. so anyways, i just wanted to post some good pics of it. i pretty much have all the mods in my sig w/ some extras and dumps. let me know what you think. EDIT: i know my plate reads 4point6. i had a 2001 GT and a 99 towncar (both 4.6's obviously and when i bought this car it was time to re-register so i just stuck with the same tag till i could figure out what i wanted, so if you are in FLA and you have a 4.6 and want my tag, let me know, ill change it ;^)

not a fan of the color but its so clean and those wheels and lights really set it off, what % tint you have on your windows? i think it looks really good. what kind of exhaust are you running?

thats what i thought it was "off white" but the color code reads tropical yellow, funny huh? i know, when i first bought it, the color held me back,. but it has grown on me, cuz i have not ever seen a 5.0 in this color, anywhere, please post links of others if you have them.. the exhaust is just dynomax race bullets, which i have run on all my cars and got more power vs. flows. i like, no complaimts. edit: the tint is 5% put over 25% (which i bought the car with) its dark, but not dark enough to where you cant see enough IMO. i hate the fishbowl effect of no tint. i like my "privacy"

I like the color. It looks like some Cadillac whites. But a little less white.
