From Science 101 - White is the absence of color.
White light is all colors of the spectrum, thats why when you shine white light through a prism, you get all the colors broken out. Same thing happens with a rainbow, light from the sun hits raindrops that work as a prism and it breaks down the white light into the colors of the spectrum.

Auburn,
I may have asked you this before, but where are you from?
Are you going to school there?

Just to jump into the white every/no color argument.

It depends on whether you are talking about white "light" or white pigment.

As stated by Holderca, white light is all colors of light, white pigment is the absense of color.

So you are all right

2 Questions:
1. How is performance white different from oxford white?

2. Is performance white a metallic white?

1. Not sure.

2. No. Just plain white.

plain white is so boring... the stripes look good on the white though... other than that I'm not a white car fan.

In terms of paint, white is the lack of pigment. Black, hypothetically, is a combination of ALL colors. I say hypothetically because in an Art Theory class we mixed paints and the closest I got to "black" was a dark dark gray, the percentages have to perfect and the paint would have to be 100% pure.

Not all whites or blacks are the same. I prefer the warmer 60s classic Wimbledon White (Polar White on Mercurys) than the "Refrigerator White" on most cars today. Black is more universal. While the Performance White is not pearl they are clear coated so there is some depth.

As noted before, we were talking about white color, not white 'light'.

Ergo, white (pigment, i.e., color) is the absence of color (pigment). Which is, of course, Science 101.

White 'light' is an entirely different subject but I do agree - white 'light' is comprised of all spectrums. But light is different than pigment.

Back to your regularly scheduled Performance White Discussion (color).

i think just plain white is a little boring but i think the shelby stripes look the best on white. I am surprised noone has posted pics of a white with red int. and red stripes that would look awesome....the blue stripes also look amazing but i think i would get red with the red int. Hopefull ford will offer a blue int in 06. any word??

White or red are they only Mustang colors! To me, black hides the beauty of the design, it makes the car look old before its time. IMHO
We all have our preferences. In the end, ALL mustangs look great!

As all for reasoning in liking Performance White I was for it as well maybe the can have sub catagories for color clubs in here what is there 10 original colors , then there could be open discussions to very soecific things that would relate to that paticular color. Just a thought. ordered Dec14/05 and is still unsched /clean Ed
