until he can post.. here is mine for color reference. I've since added a 20% tint.

Its really difficult getting the details of the metal flake when the sun is glaring..makes everything out of focus

Congrads on the new car! It started raining five minutes after I left the dealership with mine. =( Oh well! These cars look great wet.

Congrats and here's your nanner:



By the way, the 2008's are waterproof so you can drive them in the rain now.

Actually, here in Portland, OR (where it only rains once a year ) I've been driving my brand new 2008 Alloy GT (~480 miles on it now) for a couple of weeks in the rain and I am very impressed with the wet traction. Not scary at all like the old 5.0's! I have the 17's with Pirelli All Seasons and this thing does exaclty what it is supposed to - no fishtail surprises or hydroplaning at all.

I picked up my 08 GT in Aug. It was also raining... Must be a Vapor thing. You know, thats how we roll... Wet. I like my cars like I like my... Um, nevermind, I'll keep this clean (my mind is always in the gutter)

Anyways, Congrats on the new ride!

If I in the market to get an 08 Mustang GT, I would definitely get it in Vapor.

I dunno - those of us with Tungstens going after the 2004 NAIAS "titanium" color are going to start feeling a bit p.o.' ed we didn't wait until '08. I dig that Vapor, man...

It's a beauty...from the pics, looks like Tungsten without the redish tint...maybe a bit lighter. I really like it!
