I was digging through G-CAT , and I only saw 3 new colors. Lime gold = P1 Vista blue = G9 Tungsten silver = T8. I saw some cobra stuff, new v6 body side stripes for a pony package, new grill for pony package 6R3Z-8200-A, new fog lights for the pony package 4F9Z-15200-AA. There was no price on the grill yet, but the fog lights are listed at $60.92 each side. Kevin the parts guy, should be able to take orders around august, if you v6,rs want to upgrade. Thats all I've been able to dig up, I hope this helps everyone. Including all of you still waiting for your mustangs. Check this out for the 18's fanblades.http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?showtopic=22103 B)

No, but you can go to your local paint supply with the color code (G9), and they should be able to come up with the base color, that should give you a good idea, of what it should look like. G-CAT only has part #'s, color codes, and black and white drawings. And before any asks there were no pictures of the new gill or the stripes yet, all of the G-CAT
catalogs, are updated once a month, so be patient, picks will be coming soon.

Something tells me the new grille for the pony package was the one we saw on the main page from a certain someone 'THanks john'
Or close to it....
Large honeycomb with fogs and coral



As for the 18"Fanblades I hope they aren't a crazy expensive set with rubber...as I know LOTS of people will probably be buying them after the fact (05s)

Curious as to the "California Special" package.
Will it be like the upgrade to the v8s that the V6 has the pnypkg.
If so I'm intersted to see want to grab some parts for the v8

So the Pony Package is only for the V6, not the GT?

Bummer, I like the grille but want a GT....always something. :bang:

Maybe Focus Vignale below is vista blue? Nice to see ford will be bringing it into production.

I hope that's not the Vista Blue. It's not a bad color, but it's
a.) too close to Windveil, and
b.) not dark enough to be the "other" blue in the lineup

Sorry but after my research I speculate that the "Vista Blue" WILL be a lighter blue than the current blue. Just do a search on google for "vista blue" and look at all the pretty china. Yes I KNOW that Vista is a copywritable name for the color by ford and that ford will customize it. However, I would guess that these are at least close.

The blue will probably be lighter than the current Sonic Blue but darker than W. Blue. Unfortunately I think I will hate it.

You're probably right and unfortunately, I'll probably hate it too.

It makes a dark blue on the S197 that more unique.

Agreed. I'm just bummed that I won't be able to get one in that color when I'm able to buy.

Me too. I really wanted the Sonic Blue but now that I have to order a 2006 I'll need to rethink my color options.

What was that blue they put on '67s that was so pale it almost looked white? My mom had one. You don't think it will be that color do you. It seems to me like someone said that color was popular, and it would go with the whole retro theme.

In 66' & 67' they had a color called "Arcadian Blue" that was a very pale, light blue. You are probably thinking of "Diamond Blue", which was a 67' & 68' color. I believe that one was almost white. It is pretty rare, and I have not seen too many photos of it.
