I picked up a paint chip chart from Dean Sellers ford today and the GT is not listed under the Tungten chip. I don't have the chart with me, but the color was available to a few models besides the mustang. The crown vic was one, and i think the fusion was in there as well.

 

Thats because the Tungsten was a limited edition of the GT and probably isn't available anymore. That would be my guess.

 

Call it what you want...if its T8...its the same colour...

Tungsten, Titanium, and another colour are the exact same.

 

I didn't say they are different colors at all...

 

The Ford GT does indeed use Tungsten.

 

ford paint chip brochure says the following:

Tungsten clearcoat metallic:
T8
Crown Vic, Taurus

Tungsten Grey Clearcoat Metallic:
T8
Mustang

Tungsten Silver Clearcoat Metallic:
T8
Fusion


The Ford GT is not listed

The paint chip brochure is the Ford Car Exterior Colors For 2006

The T8 chip is the 4th chip on the top row.

 

The Tungsten Ford GT was indeed a limited...
I'm guessing it was a 2005 limited...not a 06.

That would answer your question

 

In that brochure the GT is not listed in any color.

 

Just so you know... the model year paint chip guides are typically printed very early on (for all manufacturers). They are not the most accurate literature in the world. Their main purpose is to show the dealers the pretty paint colors, to help them when ordering their vehicles. Take any other info on there (for example, which paint colors apply to which vehicles/models/etc.) with a grain of salt.

 

I saw a Tungsten GT in person, dealer said it was an '06. It's definitely the same color.

 

Were you thinking of buying one? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

lol not quite in my price range. was checking on the order status of my Tungsten Stang, due in this week. Showing up at the dealer seems to get better answers than over the phone. While I was there, I saw they had one Tungsten GT next to their Performance White GT. Yeah that's right, TWO Ford GTs, right next to eachother. This dealer has a HUGE allocation of these cars, they say they've sold about 9 since they came out. I posted a pic at the bottom of this page:

We have sold two here a 2005 Blue/white stripes and a 2006 Tungsten/silver stripes. They are awesome vehicles indeed!! Alas, the closest I will ever to get to owning one is the Polar Lights models I have!!
