My guess is Dark Cherry Red is different than Redrock and may be its replacement just as Bright White may be Stone White's replacement. Glad to see that Detonator Yellow will be back. Also, Job 1 date for Black, Natural Green, Bright Silver, Flame Red, and Mango Tango colors for body matching hard tops Job 1 date is tentatively set for 8/23/2010.

So I can understand what does Job 1 mean in relationship to seeing these on the forecourt?

I love the idea of detonator yellow but am trying to figure out how long I would need to wait.

thx

I'm going in to order one this week! Does anyone know if there's any changes other than colors? The dealer said possible interior changes. I just have to decide if I want auto or 6 speed..

Or Just the "Jalepeno Red" renamed maybe?

My understanding is Job 1 (Ford also uses this Job 1 term) is the first day the unit can be built with a certain feature or color or the date a new model starts production. Be aware that the Job 1 dates mentioned could be extended due to delayed paint from suppliers or other such issues. I would hope dealerships would soon get this information regarding the new colors and features so you could be assured your order had the color and options you want. For instance, if you were allowed to order Detonator Yellow now, your order would be on a delay or hold and not be built until September 13th or after and then you might get the vehicle 3-6 weeks from then depending on production and distribution issues. The dealership should be able to provide decent time estimates. Good luck ... I am waiting also.

Does anyone know when the "official" announcement will be for the 2011 colors. I'm really interested in seeing the Cherry.

Thanks in advance.
Jim
