I've seen a red EF XR6 wagon, it drove past me a week ago. Wouldn't the red striping that XR's have look bad against the red paint job?

We had some sales Information for the EF's and the ELs in the specifications area....

I just noticed that those docos are missing, so I will try and get them back up on the site before the weekend.

Anyways, both these docos had what colours were available for each model, including the xr's

i spose they would have, i mean if the colour was originally on the EB GT, then the Gli, the models between must have had it

I had a cardinal red EF fairmont but not 2 sure if XR's came out in cardinal red but maybe a few were ordered from the factory in that colour but the worse colour from the Xr's that is on a EL fairmont is navy blue with red xr side trims exactly the same as whats on a XR but it looks tacky as the fairmont grille & factory rims dont suit it if I was to buy the car first thing it would recieve is a XR front end

Thanks all, Dont think they came out with that colour because of the clash with the red insert in the mouldings, but i think the Ed Xr8 sprints came in that colour.
