Very nice site! More current than MarkVIII.org, although they do have some good tech tips. Purchased my 1997 Mark VIII in 2012. I believe the correct color name is Desert Tan Metallic. Not my favorite color, but car had been maintained very well from previous owner & she only put 15K on it in the 7 years of receipts that came w/the car! Currently has 106K miles on it. Since purchase I have added the following: K&N air filter w/air inlet silencer & box removed; 2.5" Mandrel bent true dual exhaust w/x-pipe, 3rd cat removed, PYPES Race Pro SS Mufflers & modified stock tips to fit 2.5" pipes; 235/60-16 tires on stock snowflakes; Partial J-mod (only drilled seperator plate = nice firm shift); painted grille surround body color due to chrome was terrible. Hope to add Saleen Speedstars soon. Sorry, but forgot that I lowered the sensors for a nicer ride height, had the windows tinted, just replaced the suspension air pump & both upper control arms.

Sorry, I got the exterior color wrong. The correct color name is Light Prairie Tan Metallic. fordknutt.
