It's Official! Grabber Orange is NOT a metallic color for 2007...
I have confirmed this thru my regional contact here in New Jersey. Grabber Orange is listed in the order guides and on their websites as 'clearcoat metallic'. I was told Grabber Orange is NOT a metallic nor was it ever intended to be. So the 2007 color guide that was posted earlier this week was correct, indeed.And now you know the REST of the story!

I remember when the '05's first came out and white was listed as "Performance White Clearcoat Metallic". I was excited that it was a pearl white. When I got to the auto show, I was dissappointed that it was non-metallic. Looks like they did the same blunder with Grabber Orange.

I'm pleased to hear confirmation that it's not metallic. I don't understand what some of you are talking about "no pop". Tell me Performance Red, Competition Orange and similar colors don't have any "pop"

That where I'm a little warped. I'd like a purple 07 GT if it ran 10's. I'm alot more caught up in go than show. Just me.

Well for me I spend 1 day of the year at a drag strip and the rest of the year looking at my car every day when I get into it I'd like it to at least have some appeal visually. I wouldn't mind some peformance..but I'm not driving around in a Paisly coverd mustang ..I don't care how fast it is
