Motor Trend Car Show - No Mustang
I went to the Greenville, SC show Friday hoping to test drive the new Mustang. What did Ford have there? One pickup truck and no cars to drive. They had a nice Mustang 'vert in the show area so at least I could sit in it. On the other hand, Chrysler had a Challenger, Dart GT, and 8 other cars to test drive. Certainly disappointing. I asked the Ford rep there why there were no choices. She didn't know but registered me for a $50 gift card if I go to the local Ford dealer and test drive a car. Oh well, that's something. The Challenger R/T was certainly a nice car and I also give a thumbs up to the Dart GT as a decent car for under $25k.
On a side note, my GT/CS had as many looks in the parking lot as the new cars inside the convention center. Not bad for an 8 year old car. I did have it 'show quality' detailed which didn't hurt.

One thing you have to give Dodge credit for and that is that they are not afraid to put some wild colors on that Challenger from the factory.
Personally I think Ford should offer a more expansive selection of wheel colors from the factory as opposed to just black or metal finish. For instance, a white Mustang often looks good with white rims while a black Mustang can look really good with yellow or bronze colored wheels. There are variety of color combinations that can really improve the look of a car and I think this 2015 body style really lends itself to using a variety of color options in the wheel selection.
Ford could even make that a feature on "ordered cars only" if they wanted to for those dealerships that are unsure about keeping Mustangs on the lot with a wide array of wheel colors. You take that new Orange Mustang for instance. It would look really great with a set of white wheels on it.
