Tungsten Gray looked best, IMHO, especially with the Fan Blades.

The fake hoodscoop on the one looks as adolescent as ever, oh well. at least it serves absolutely no function whatsoever. Roush was a bit overstyled, as is typical, but hey, the trailerpark teens need something to dream about too, eh?

Ford's own GT 500 looks much better and will likely be a far better ride overall at a similar price. Aside from a few peacocks, I'm not sure how Roush will sell any of them once the GT 500 is out.

I've got to chime in with a vote for the MG (probably biased) it's still my favorite even after the new tungsten. Thanks for the comparision pictures, it's great to see them lined up next to each other.

Brad, Nice comparo. That should help out folks in their decision of what color to choice, even though not all are currently available.

I have best of both worlds!

My black/black '05 GT coupe and my dads week old '06 GT Toungsten, black top red accents vert. auto w/ blades

I can be bad in black or cruise in style in the vert

the toungsten does shift colors big time, things I noticed:
-has a definit purple tinge at times
-alot of metalic
-very dull looking in low/no light (even when clean)
-because of the metalics in paint there are some small muddy/distorted areas on car (not enought to complain)
-sometimes looks like primer
-has to be kept clean and waxed to show true beauty

for the vert, I already ordered lowering springs, seq tails, CDC light bar and considering CDC shaker (I wish it was larger)

Nice pics. I'd love to see that kind of dealer stock up here in Connecticut. GT's are still nowhere to be found.

Great pictures. As a WV Blue owner, I think the Tungsten Grey looks great.

I'm so tired of waiting for mine, I would be more than happy with any of the three colors!
