I have not seen that many shade variations of black. There are differences, but most are not visable. When my 96 TA was being painted I asked the painter about it as he was mixing up the paint. He said that some formulas called for a minute amount of another color to be added to the black.
Ford may be just changing the name.

I'm thinking that Ford has to offer some basics, standards that everyone expects so they can't muck them up too much. One of those is black. Call it what you want but black is black. Really doubt they will be mixing purple or big chunks of metal flake in it. Agree with others, probably just a name change.

"Ebony is the new Black!" - some hip fashion designer
"We don't say 'Black,' kids, rather, let's use 'Ebony.'" - some PC person.
"I'm the pretty..." - Andy aka 'AWmustang' has a new C/T waiting for him...
/Me=Diet coke of evil. Just one calorie. Not evil enough.

I also think I saw that ebony was a metallic black. I am thinking that some point in the past I researched this and found that FMC had used "ebony" on some vehicle in the past and it was in fact metallic. Have no idea what it was. I may look it up later. I can't right now, as my brain is not functioning very well on this wonderful Monday morning.

I thought it was the F150 Harley that came in Ebony. That would be pretty cool if it was a metallic black like the GTO has.

I think I read somewhere that the ebony for '06 will be metallic.
