Pfft! That's lame! Couldn't they have just made their recent FG's less pink? Then we could have a new CoY. The vintage look is nice, but I wouldn't want to pay extra for a normal color.

Hmm...John Hall said no new color "per se". My wife brought up an interesting point..what if it's not a color but a pattern of some sort? Plaid, paisley, checkerboard maybe?
I don't think it's lame, Nate. The COY will have a cool vintage look especially with the walnut head wings...it would be awesome if checkered binding came with COY on a 4003.
