i'm biased because i have a satin silver with ICAP

but i think the tungsten w/red is not so good, in some light it definately has a pink and purple thing going on

the contrast of the satin with the black and red inside is what made my decision

If i was into red i would have gone ICAP, but to me, the silver with DK charcoal has got class (they both do). But i think the IUP goes better with the sliver/charcoal also.

Personally, I think the ICAP goes best with Performance White (*points to my car*)

Actually, I have to admit that I was pretty sure that was true, but since the only dealership with a black one with ICAP when I wanted it (this was back in December) wouldn't sell it to me! :bang: They tried to sell me a different one and just generally lied their dirty, car-salesmen butts off, so I left that dealership and found a small-town one who wouldn't screw me over. He didn't have black, but I realized that the white looks awesome... and I drove it home

Oh, and to answer the question for this post... I would *think* it would go better with the satin silver, since the blue/purple/whatever in the Tungsten might not go as well with the red interior as the pure grey would. I love the Tungsten color though, and I'm sure it would look great either way.

Actually even though I am getting TG I would agree. Red in black looks best.

Tungsten with Dark Charcoal

No ICAP. I seriously hate the color red. At least on any car I own. (Exception only to a 60's Stang) I have never wanted red on a car. Although I did almost buy a 95 Red Probe (I was only 16) I got a 96 Black Stang instead.

So I've also been to the dark side & I'm not going back. And Silver is just too light to me. Although it is now my 3rd color choice (MG/TG is 1st & Windveil Blue is 2nd). But it's totally up to the owner. They are the ones who has to drive the car not me.

Never thought I would like red ICAP until I first got inside an '05 GT. It was a black convertible. Personally, I think ICAP is best with black, but I couldn't own another black vehicle again. I think next best is Tungsten (I'm biased though)

i was just about to post your photo as a living proof ICAP is HOT on TG, not mention, being the reason i went with ICAP

i personally think ICAP goes better with TG, since Tungsten is a bit darker than Satin Silver.. and the red needs a bit of contrast
so yeah, as most of you said already.. ICAP is best with Black
but given a choice of TG and SS, i'd vote tungsten

Wow... I hadn't seen ICAP + tungsten, but that's beautiful. Nice car! White's still better, but that's 'cause it's mine!

You absolutely MUST get the ICAP if you are getting either colour!! It really looks great.

You can't go wrong with either one - the combo looks great on each (although, based on the forum topic, the two poll choices with dark charcoal interior make no sense).

IMO the ICAP makes this car. Do it... do it now


Oh yeah... and obviously the best choice isn't listed... Torch Red with ICAP
