its a pretty nice color but nothing beats windveil blue
Why are you ordering black if nothing beats WB?

I like the WB much better than black btw. The one I test drove was WB.

I agree with you....love the WVB. Just curious why your signature says you're ordering a black one?

I must admit the the Windevil blue is a very nice color for the Stang. Looks great in person!! But all of this talk about it being a "girly" color has be backstepping a little. It is between the WB and the Redfire, unless Ford runs out of the paint too

I also like the Performance White but primarily with the Shelby-type stripes on it

WVB is sort of a baby blue (yes I have seen one IRL).

Put stripes on it, I think that would remove any "girlie" comments.

Yeah, me too - it's down to Redfire or Windveil Blue. I wanted Redfire until I saw Windveil Blue in person. It's really impressive, especially the way it changes color in different lighting conditions. I think I could live with it for a long time without getting tired of it.

As far as WB being "girly," that's just someone's opinion. To me it looks classic. When I was a kid one of our neighbors had an old T-Bird in a similar color.

I do think WB looks better on the V6 - it emphasizes the more subdued nature of the car. If I were getting a GT I would probably get Redfire.

Take a look here too, for classic Mustang colors.

http://www.svs.com/zim/mustang/colors.html

I really like the 69 colors of Royal Maroon, Presidential Blue, and Acapulco Blue.

There will be more colors in 2006. I like the titanium 06 color, but my current car is silver and I'm ready for a color change.

I also doubt I will be waiting until next model year to pick up a different car.

I've registered with the Pony Trail and will be picking up an 05 in June unless I change my mind.

Cheers.

IMO the w/b is a very classy color on the '05, but I've got to have my bullitts. Actually, haven't seen an '05 color I didn't like!

Ford used to offer dealers the option of custom colors if they bought 5 identical cars through the Fleet Dept. Maybe Kevin or some of the other salepeople can confirm if Ford still does this.

I checked the fleet site, they did not list the Mustang as an option for custom colors (though it is a fleet option).

Of the available custom colors there is not a dark green listed.

There is however a "dark green satin" listed for F-350's, don't know how it looks in person but at least the color exists.

I had a 98 GT that was Dark Satin Green, its a really dark green color thats nearly black. Looked really good cleaned and waxed, looked horrible dirty

Is the Titamium color that was on the show car Mustang going to be an 06 option yet?

With a name like "vista blue" one would think it would be close to a sky blue:

Found this doing a image search for "vista blue". Take it with a grain of salt.

I asked the same thing earlier and no one responded. I suppose no one knows, no one cares, or they don't feel like sharing! I am pretty determined to get the TORCH RED, but I'd be really disappointed if Colorado Red turned out to be even nicer than Torch.

Like Torch Red, I don't think Colorado Red will be a metallic paint; the Redfire already has that covered. On another note, I still think the Mustang needs something in the dark green family.

Is this theory sound? I'm all ears.

A dark metallic green.... I can even accept BRG, but it'd be nice to see some of the old Stang greens brought back.

Or Bullitt green...


(-it's only a model. -sssh)

and what's this crap about WVB being a girlie color? how can any color be girlie on a stang? (except for pink :P ) calling WVB girlie is calling the mustang girlie because it is on it. the WVB is a very classy and appealing color. no other color shows off the mustang's lines like the WVB.
