Where's a white/black Boss?

I believe Ford has now shown us an actual Boss in all available colors except white. Consistent with poll results on this forum, it may not be that popular although I think a may look quite good.

I think the white & black combo will look good and be the safe way to go . Its make all the trim on the car work together.

I bet it will be one of the best color combinations in person.

Its hard to tell in some of the pics, but the black appears to be a glossy black instead of a matte or flat black. Makes me wonder how it will contrast with the white.

They should've left the fog lights in and just covered them with a dark tint.

It is a Boss-specific grille - the center pony is different!

More than that, the GT grille is a honeycomb pattern. The Boss grille is horizontal ribs and slots.

Thanks for the additional clarification, along with the post of the photo from Twin Turbo! It clearly shows the grille pattern and the blacked out fog light area.

And I also agree the white looks great!

Thanks for the photo. I think that is an accurate rendition of the Performance White with black trim. Since I ordered that color last Friday the pic is now my screensaver.

Thanks again.

I can't take credit for the Photoshop, just for giggles, here is the original pic that was chopped, too bad the light on the C Stripe was reflecting, it appears the same way on the white one.

LQQK, what color did you end up deciding on?

I'm still waiting for some more photos of the red/black and the white/black combo.

I went by the ford dealer this weekend here, there was a festive there that was tri-blaze yellow. It's neat, but not my color. My wife says I'm not an orange guy, so I guess that C/O is probably not for me.

Right now my order is White, my dealer said I could change it up until they get a build date (I think that's what he called it), anyway, if I get a chance to see CO/B or RED/B, I might change my mind.

I don't feel good picking colors from pictures, good example was the YB, pictures posted looked one way, in person on a 5.0 Mustang, looked completely different.

I was all over the RED/WHITE till I saw pictures of it, the three color combination (RED-WHITE-BLACK) is way too busy, so I wanna stick with a TWO color combination.

The W/B in the Speed video looked great and I have owned White in the past, It stands the test of time (Bonus>looks clean longer) and if you keep it waxed, it looks fantastic, the only down side to White, it's not as 'SPORTY' as RED, ORANGE or YELLOW.
