I just went to the Woods and Water show in Imaly City, MI (for those of you that know the area). Well, we stopped at Tim Hortons on the way home as it was getting dark and I seen 2 05's pulling out at the neighboring gas station. Windveil blue GT and a Legend Lime v6. We followed them aways down the expressway. I know a bunch of you have seen it already, but it was just so cool I thought I would share. I have been looking at photos of this car for about a year and I finally got to see one in person! Oh and yeah they DO look much cooler in person.

Yeah I never though I would see one until they hit the lots.. That made it that much better! B) Those are the 2 colors that were last on my list but they even looked so cool--especially the windveil gt. The headlights and the fogs look so awesome in the dark.

The 05 is so much more impressive in person, it's hard to explain! I saw it earlier this year on the Great American Pony Drive and again last week at the Innovation Drive. It is truly a pleasure to see in person!

You know, its crazy, but is it possible that people don't have cameras on them at all times. I mean come on, who doesnt have a digital camera on them 24/7? Give him a break.

Yeah I never really cared for windveil until I seen it in person. My wife absolutely loved that color. She said you have to get that car! Makes me wonder what they will all look like in person. If that windveil looks this good (was my least favorite) in person I may need another year to decide on a color! lol

The headlights looked different at night driving at different angles. It didn't quite look like round hedlights unless they were right behind me. Definitly cool though..

Love seeing the 0 0 0 0 lights and the fogs on the GT.

Looking at that kick **** roofline, there is no way I'm getting a vert. The coupe Just looks too cool.

Ever since I had a little fender-bender a few years ago... I keep a camera in all my cars.

Yeah I've seen a Sonic Blue GT in Novi, MI; Windveil Blue GT in East Lansing, MI; and a camouflaged Sonic Blue Convertible on the highway near Howell, MI. Sister saw a Black and Legend Lime Mustang at Meijer's in Novi, MI but didn't know if they were V6 or GT. As for all this talk about carrying a digital camera, I don't even own one. Far too expensive for me and a waste since I never, ever take pictures.

Its funny, windveil was last on my list until a week or two ago. I saw a similarly colored BMW in a parking lot, and it just blew my mind!

Now it's like a 50/50 shot between windveil and titanium.

I really need to see the colors back to back in a dealer showroom!

Glad to hear that the Windveil is that impressive to see in person. Makes me think I'll really be blown away when I get the chance to actually see it. And I really can't wait to see this behind me those light look really cool

Less of them were made IMO. Most of the show cars were red and there were none or few WB's and sonics at the drives.

Sonic is definately the least photographed car we have. There were several events with WB GT's. I have a lot of WB GT pics in my collection. Only two or three sonic GT shots.

Do you think those were pre-productions or some ford executives tooling around in the production versions?

It would have been nice to have the camera. Then again I don't usually have it with me so...

I have analyzed every angle of this car anyway. I don't really need any more pictures. The next picture of an 05 that I will take will be of my own.
