Is the Mineral Grey on the 2005 going to be different then the mineral grey found on the 03 and 04 models. I was looking through the order guide and noticed that Mineral Grey was listed under colors that were all new for 2005.

Mineral grey was not offered in '04 it was in '03.. so that's why they say it is "all new" when in fact they are just bringing it back.

The same can be said about satin silver.. it was offered in '02 but not since

On the page where you can look at the 2005 Production model...there are pictures of a darker silver with white stripes. I think it is the car from the "unveiling". Anyway I am wondering if that color is either of the grey/silver colors offered for 2005? I can't tell from the pictures I can find.

I think that was the "Titanium Silver" model. It's a little darker than the production Silver.

The darker silver is Titanium metallic, and will not be offered for 2005

The light silver stripes are Satin Silver, which are a 2005 Mustang Color.

The showcar was painted to match the Cobra and GT(40) at the show.

I owned a 90 Titanium GT and everybody who saw it thought it was everything from a Saleen to a McLaren, of course people have a little more stang knowledge now. It had Titaniun upper and silver bottom, the two colors look great together.

I would be all over that as an SE. Whatever color I finally decide on is going to get the "stripe job". I'm leaning toward either Mineral Grey with Satin Silver stripes or Windveil Blue with Satin Silver stripes...then tinting and 18's to finish it off.

The Lime is the orignal color of my 70 Fastback I am restoring and I cant make my self paint it back that color. However I think todays paint in that color will probably look 100% better than 1970.

Is that the color of the car itself? I don't remember that car very well, did it have striping?

I really think Mineral Grey is the way to go but i guess i will just have to wait and see the car before deciding stripe color. Anybody here have any suggestions for stripe colors?

No stripes just a plain Jane Fastback with sport mirrors , Black interior though so color choices are unlimited, try to pick a color for a street machine really tough, it is between redfire and titanium now.
