My Wife says the Screaming Yellow was a girls color...no?
I didnt like it at first but now I cant see owning any other color.
:worship:
I have a relative that says Sonic Blue is Air Force blue.
I dunno about that. I think it is an awesome color.
I use to have a 1986 Toyota 4X4 truck that color.

All I can say is I'm 17, and I got an 05 of my own which is sonic blue, and taking it to school is an adventure. The girls say "ohhhhh what a pretty color that is!" and the guys say "Thats a really cool color" So I think sonic blue all around is liked by both sexes. The one thing they all agree on is I should have gotten a manual, but I really dont care what they say, I like my auto.
Need the snow to melt, ASAP!

Little agreement with my dad. I pay for the car, he pays for the insurance.
Right now, my mom is the prmiary driver on my mustang, although she's never driven it.
Now seeing my payments are over $500 a month, I need to work a lot to keep up lol.
We actually have a '03 Vert, and that is more than my 05 hardtop for insurance each month. We also took both Mustangs off the insurance for the winter, so they'll sit. They go back on March 8th, but the forcast says snow from now until then.

In someones mind each color is a girls color. As long as they are attracted to it......I'd drive it. As for the auto vs. manual, 1/4 mile times don't seem to hurt the automatic at all and after living in the Oakland/SF area for 4 years, I'll never have a manual again. Tell her you'll listen to her input when you get some money from her.

i can give u the point of view from an 18 yr old considering i am one......anyways i got the manual and black. i absloutely love windveil blue. i can almost guarentee that the color will grow on her. if she hasnt seen it in person then when she does she'll fall in love. and if shes not gonna drive it for a few little things she dont like well then thats more miles for u to drive!!

My daughter complained,
Why I'm buying a new car that I want! She wants me to buy her a car, fat chance!
Now I have'nt had a new car since 1985, before all of my kids!
All these years I've let the family choose the new car.
Not saying I've not gotten my drives. Just not a new one.
So, It's my time I say to all of them!
As for this auto./std. I ordered auto., been there 3/4/5/spds. std.
My racing days are very long gone in a distant past!
Happy Trails!!

My 16 yr old loved my 99 GT and wanted to have it this year. Lets just say there is no way he is touching my 05, the boy cant stay outta trouble in school. He liked the blue 99s.
My 11yr old LOVES my car, never said anything about it being stick or auto, or the color. She saw a Sonic Blue said, "Thats a cool color Mom, why didnt you get that?" I had to explain I was going to be painting mine,and they told me to get black for the best paint job... Trust me folks she is about as far from "girlie" as an 11 yr old can get.
Anway, Id like to remind everyone that we have hashed the issue of color out in detail. It never turns out pretty,and I am so not going there again. We dont bag on color choices, tranny choices, or engine sizes here at TMS. The auto V6s are just as cool as the Manual GTs.
Play nice kids, we dont want this thread shut down.

how is it dumb??? Why do u think lambos are only manual??? because they're real sports cars!! A Mustang mis a real sports car and the only reasons u get a v8 auto is if ur a girl or ur old...thats my opinion..

dang. i thought I was arrogant. and im 15!
im with Lalo man. what if someone has no need for a stick? what if they have a long and slow commute? jebus man, its not ur decision, its Mike's.
shame on you
if may parents ogt an 05 i wouldnt care if it was a V6, GT, auto, or manual. i'd just wanna drive it
EDIT: just realized i probably shouldnt have been so hostile there. i should have read the entire thread and then i would have realized the problem resolved itself. oh well. sorry about that folks
one last thing about colors, i think that if its on a mustang, it cant be just a girls color. just not possible, seeing as EVERY color looks hot on the new stang

Why thank you. I am a girl & only 22, so I am still not as experienced as the older drivers. But I do know that there are other reasons for getting an auto over a manual. Now while I opted for the V6 over the V8, I got the automatic for many reasons. Not one of them being because I thought "oh well I am a girl so I have to get an auto".
In all fairness I will admit that I can't drive an manual, not that I don't have like 10 people willing to teach me. But that did not dictate my decision. Now my friends little sister (20) has a manual. In fact she saw the car, said I want it & her granddad informed her that it was a manual & she said she didn’t car that she would learn to drive. And she did. My brothers girlfriend (24) has a manual & she and my brother have 2 other roommates (both men) and neither of their roommates can drive a manual.
My mom (60) can drive a manual, but she hates them & therefore owns an auto. My Uncle (64) and his wife (late 60’s) own 5 manuals & 2 automatics. And my cousin (a female & 38) has a license to drive manual 18-wheelers but drives an automatic car. My neighbor drives a stick, as does her daughter (21). So before you throw out accusations find something to back it up. Yes we are all entitled to our own opinions, but tell us why you think that way.
And as for Sonic Blue being a girl’s color, I like the color. But I don’t think I would own one that color. I like the purpleish tint to the paint, especially since purple is my fave color. However I don’t think that one color is more of a girls or boys color over any other. You like you drive it & you don’t care what others think, that’s my opinion. JMO. Sorry if I offended anyone, it was not my intention.
