The color was my hardest choice. At least you're down to two colors. Mine was driven by the red/black interior. I still think back and wonder if I will regret not ordering the windviel blue.

My husband says:
Windveil blue- First choice of 80 year old ladies everywhere.

IMO ditch both and go black...Every other car on the road(including my beautyful worthless pile) is industrial white.

Agreed about the windveil. And the only way I'd take white is with the stripes as mentioned.

Me and my wife were talking about colors last night:

Picture this, A White GT with the ICAP and red stripes...... That's a combo that will really set off the ICAP.

I would go with the black exterior and the parchment (tan) interior. There's a thread on here from a guy in Colorado who bought his off the showroom flow with that color combo and it is GORGEOUS!

White looks like a service vehicle and the windveil (in my opinion) is definitely an old person's color.

How about the sonic blue? Or the Redfire if you don't like the black?

Wow I never knew 39 was old! I love the windveil blue! You really can't go wrong with either choice. I was in the same dilemma and ended up choosing windveil blue. Good luck with your choice. It will be nice either way you go.

If you are going with white, get the red seats,

personally windveil doesn't do it for me, but the Mustang seems to look really good in white with bullitts.

Jay, the windveil looks really good. Its a "steel blue". It is very classy. Not a lady's colour IMO. Its not ticket-me red or look-at-me sonic (colours I like at my age), but it really looks good on the 05. Plus, there aren't that many cars on the road with that colour.

I've only seen the windveil, but I own a Performance White Probe GT (not for long). Its the best white I've ever seen.

In the end, what do YOU like better. Ask yourself this, which colour did you want us to tell you to pick when you started the thread? That's your answer!

The one good thing I can say about white is-
Its VERY easy to keep.
Not that I am spending too much time washing my car lately.

I like black because it tends to soak up the trim pieces and the bodywork panel gaps. To me a black Mustang looks like it was carved from a solid metal ingot.

To me, a black Mustang says, "Do NOT mess with me."

Black is more demanding to keep pretty. But I can garage this one when I get it, and now the world has Zaino! :yes:

White? OK, IF you have stripes. B)
