he liked i think it was navajo red. he used a square of it as a kindof logo on his drawings. he also liked to have cars that color.

i read somewhere that when the original lincoln contintntal came out in 39 he went to the local dealer and said that the worlds most famous architect should be driving one for free and said i want two in navajo red. and next day picked them up.

actually sounds like urban legend. i wouldnt put it past wright to ask for one but i question if they would give him one.

but they did drive out there in a caravan. i have seen pictures of that.
