If there's really that much of a difference between the 08 DHG and the 19 version than they should have given it a different name. Like "New Highland Green" or "Anniversary Highland Green" or something. I hate it when car manufacturers change a paint recipe but keep the same name.

The 01 an 08-09 paints are slightly different too, they have the same name but different codes.

'01/'09/'19 Bullitt, '90 GT, '00 Corvette FRC
'01 - dark highland green (PY)
'08-'09 - highland green metallic (PX)
'19 - bright highland green (code unknown) <- heard during media event

I have yet to see another reference to the '19 green color name in print, but I also heard it was remixed to "pop". Note Bullitt's commentary on what he saw.

Ford.com specifically says: A Dark Highland Green exterior

Yes, it does. There also was the "production not limited" commentary at the reveal but "limited edition" in written Ford communication. From what I saw in the light at Detroit, the hue seemed brighter than either the '01 or '08/'09. I suppose we will know everything in full by the time the order guide is released. Not too much longer for that (6 weeks).

A long 6 weeks. I keep having to stop myself from looking at GT350's and just having a car now.

You are all correct...

The new DHG reacts differently to different amounts of light. Matter of fact, you can see the range of it's "color range" in some of these pics. (ie: Zelek's)

I always thought the 2009 Bullitt I owned looked like a dull green. The 2019 looks much nicer.
