On the cover of the June 04 Mustang Enthusiast? Im fixing to read up about it and the orangey tint this one has is great.

Townsend Ford in Tuscaloosa Al has a list of buyers for the 05 already. From what I am told when order day comes- we go in there and flush out our car. I am told no deposit is needed(vs another dealer I checked on who wanted 10%). YIPPEE!

Looked at the GT again tonight, its getting harder and harder to leave her there all lonely(Sticker shock is all that is between me and her) that and the Mustang Nest egg is not ripe yet.

It's the redfire...just with some strange lighting.

LOL and I think you wanted to say "flesh out your car"? Flush out just sounds...icky. Not sure on that one though...

Not trying to belittle you...just hit my funny bone.

When I went to drive the Mach 1 (see story in V8 forum) I was looking at the redfire vs. torch red.

I must say that I like the Torch better on the current car. I'm wondering if I'll also like it better on the 05. I can't wait to compare them.

Trust your gut. If either option feels wrong, it probably isn't the best choice.

My gut feeling has always told me the windveil blue is the color to go on...There is a 99.999 chance this is the color that will be parked outside. As an added bonus, my husband thinks it looks like something an old lady would drive(the grandmas around here all have powder blue cadillacs). So we made a truce- I wouldn't drive his bronco and he won't drive my mustang. works for both of us.

Mustangs are not a rare sight here- but everyone and their mother have Sonic Blue, Redfire, torch red, white, black and grey.
You almost never see Screaming Yellow and I have yet to see a competition orange on the road.

The legend Lime is interesting just because I havent seen it since the 60s, Satin Silver is interesting as is mineral grey- but only properly striped up.

Don't go on the pic you have...its NOT powder blue at all.

It looks silver in the silver/blue in the dark.

Pontiac has a similar colour on their cars...like a pewter.

Eh? Ugh.

I do NOT want powder blue, I am not 75. I want unusual blue- not sonic.

No, thats electric blue...the colour that WB looked like..seems to be unavailable anymore.

And its LIKE that colour, but lighter..same idea.

Also WB is VERY metallic.
I'll post some WB pics in another thread so you can see.

Proper meaning nearly impossible to recreate with the average person's resources.
