The salesguy at our local Ford used car dealer (who sold me my last used car) ordered a Vista Blue V6 Premium. Despite being tied directly to the sister Ford new car dealer and their 'wealth of knowledge' he came to me when he had questions. Seems none of his salesman buddies could tell him about Vista Blue or much other data regarding 06s. Pretty strange when a Ford salesguy has to call a former customer to find out about a new Ford car!

That's awesome. I didn't like how sonic blue looked purplish. It's a true blue color. I also was bothered by how mineral grey looks brownish in the sunlight.
Hey Chuck, it's great that your excited as I am about this new color. Blue is my favorite color period, and I can't wait to see it in person. To let you know why I think it looks like Guardsman Blue, I held the color chip page up next to a model of a 427 S/C Cobra I have in my office, and it was very similar. Vista Blue may be just a shade lighter, which is fine by me. The car will look FANTASTIC with white Shelbt Lemans stripes on it.

What is the best way to put stripes on your mustang? Get a paint shop to paint them on, or what? I've always thought the stripes down the top middle looked great.

WOOHOO!!! Got a VistaBlue GT for build next week. Getting so close!!!

Ordered on only seeing the paint chip sheet from the dealer up close, nothing more than that. Loved it. It was a lighter blue that the Sonic because it seemed to have more of a metallic shine to it.

Thanks everyone for your opinions on the color your easing my mind a little. I know the Sonic Blue was purpley but I still liked it. I did like the dealer chip that I saw but Amy V6,the one who saw in in person said it reminded her mostly of Sonic with out the purple but a little bit of Atlantic Blue which was on the 98 stang. My worry comes from that very statement I think that Atlantic looks too ricey of a color for my tastes, but if what you guys said is true about the guardsman blue from the cobra then I am in heaven, that color was grade A badd @**! Thanks and keep those vista orders coming!

Atlantic blue does not look ricey... nor does Bright Atlantic Blue.. which is what I think you have it confused with.

I'm not answering any more questions about colors. Just wait till you see it.. and then form your opinion.

For me.. right now.. after seeing them in real life.. I don't like either TG and VB.. but everyone is different and is going to view color differently

You guys don't know how many times a week I get this question. I didn't mind it the first couple times... but now it's becoming a little annoying haha I saw the color back in June, just for a little bit.. I wanted to go out cruising.

Use the search option hahahaha

Honestly... people do view colors differently... I took the pics of it on a very sunny day... my camera might be slightly off in color... your moniter might be slightly off in color too.

Plus.. slightly tipsy right now.. so don't take my harshness so harsh
