If I had to get an 06...
It would be a huge tossup between Tungsten and Vista...both great additions

And those are with just a regular camera..no glamour shots or anything.

I bet it looks 100x better in person.
Can't wait to go see one at a dealership...

Nah... doesn't have any of the brownish/goldish hue of Mineral Gray (I do love MG by the way).

Tungsten is much more of a "pure" gray-tone.

The color is nice, I get the feeling we will be seeing a lot of this color. I don't know why but, it just looks like one of those colors. Now how about some vista blue stang pics!

Ya that color looks really nice. Much better then the MG color. But why does the car have the 05 upgrade wheels? i thought they were using fanblades for 06?

There are four wheel options for 2006--the two carryover 2005 styles, the 18" Fanblades, and 18" Bullitts. 18" Marauder wheels are also under consideration.

Yes! Get some pics of that blistering color in full sunlight baby! Also, for those who have seen it, was is your general opinion of how it will look with red leather?

Looks like for '06 they changed the center caps on the 17" machined wheels to include the pony emblem, where the '05 had the oval Ford emblem.....

Thanks Brad!


But...would it have killed them to move it over 10 feet into the sun? Who takes pictures of a car in the shade? :crazy:
