Doug did you see that Neo now has the mark IV in ...
A dark red/blk top and red interior? If I recall you have the mustard gold one with brown interior. While I thought it was very period correct and a color that was commonly seen back in the day, I never really cared for that color. Then I saw Neo release it in SIlver with a gray top and maroon interior. WOW I thought and was going to order one, but NOW I this red one and I am really thinking of pulling the trigger! 
BUT another problem with me buying it, is that I own the Neo Mark VI which is almost the same color! So once on display I dont want them to blend. What to do???? Order the RED or SILVER???

I saw that red color. I like the gold better. It looks real nice with the black top and int.
If they do a blue one with a white top I'm on it.

Yes it is. I wouldn't mind having that one as well. I opted for the Silver.
Which I like a lot, but that gold looks rich.

That gold IS sharp and very period correct! I remember vividly many WERE that color with
Brown tops and interiors or black, but more commonly brown trim. The Silver was popular too back then, while the red wasnt that common, but it DOES look nice. To be honest all THREE are great colors for this model and each do it justtice for a different reason. The Silver and Gold ones are just very "period correct" and the red/black is sharp and a more rare color combination for the Mark IV. Neo did a great job on these Mark Lincolns. The V and VIs are to die for!! I hope they come out with the Mark III and in tahoe turquoise with a white top and turquoise interior. Followed by marron with maroon int and black top. THen just for ME a black one with the ginger tan interior (forgot the name of the color).
