Princelex Posted February 22, 2011 Share #31 Posted February 22, 2011 The more I see this paint scheme, the more I love it but questions come to me looking at 5693. Will this become the new paint scheme for ALL the buses, including the RTS's and Orion V's? What about all the buses that already got the paint jobs and became whitebacked, will they get this too? Will the new buses coming to the look like this? Great stuff overall but my brain is in overdrive seeing this take place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, this is the new standard scheme for all buses that come out of the shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Up Front Posted February 22, 2011 Share #33 Posted February 22, 2011 So the entire time, we were putting white decals over that black space and then putting the blue stripe over it? Dear God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw, the only thing that's paint is the white- The decals are the vinyl stripe and the black around the windows as well as the numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercurygrandmarquis1 Posted February 28, 2011 Share #37 Posted February 28, 2011 i dont like it. i think it looks cheap. Honestly i think NYC is losing character with the shift to cheaper, more plain vehicles. IE this design and when they switched from blue RMP's to white. but one mans opinion never changed anything so i guess ill get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'89 Liberty MCI Posted March 5, 2011 Share #39 Posted March 5, 2011 5705 from Kingsbridge has it now. Should we start making a list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenEleven Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share #40 Posted March 6, 2011 5705 from Kingsbridge has it now. Should we start making a list? 5705 is so ugly compared to 5693. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'89 Liberty MCI Posted March 6, 2011 Share #41 Posted March 6, 2011 What makes you say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenEleven Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share #42 Posted March 6, 2011 What makes you say that? There's more black which pushes the stripe down more. The stripe doesn't go all the way. Its just that it looks tacky when compared to 5693. What's worse is that Zerega did 5693 while 5705 was taken to a nearby shop. Also, 3612 is in the new scheme as well.

Grand Concourse Posted March 6, 2011 Share #43 Posted March 6, 2011 I don't mind the sides and the back, but I don't like the all white front. It should have a blue stripe at the front. That's the only thing that would really make it look great, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine, me personally, I think the blue stripe should be there. It just looks so weird especially with the black numbering like that. Doesn't look 'MTA' to me.
