Just curious... why would they exclude certain accessory packages? Is it because they use more paint and they want to save the paint for actually building cars? According to a link on another thread, they don't expect Kona to balance out for Mustang until August -- is that what you're seeing too?

But at least Sonic Blue is a nice color!
Interesting report on Ford Paint colors http://www.donlen.com/fleet-manageme...uncements.aspx

Well that is a shame folks, Sonic Blue pales in comparsion to Kona! I didn't care for it much on the 2005 and I thought Vista was stunning and a far better repalcement and I won't care for it on the 2013 Mustang. It deserves a far better blue than Sonic.

Truegeek, when did you put your order in? I am waiting for a build date on a Red Candy V6 Prem. Vert. I am being told that the paint may be ok now, but the Nav. is backordered because of the Japan Quake. Bummer for me!

I got your latest message and will get to it as soon as I can. Regarding the Nav System in your order, I don't think you will be able to get it. Please speak to your dealer and modify your order if needed.
