I'm all over the black jade or black cherry colour...
I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

Don't forget the Mystic GT500 that we didn't get for this 05-09 gen. We had em in 96' and 04', I'd love to see a Mystic GT500 as an option.

No alloy would make me sad.

When non-mustang owners ask me (before seeing my car) what color my car is, I always tell them "dark grey." And half the time, they respond with "So, you mean silver?" And no, I don't mean silver, and they don't understand until they see the car in person. No offense to those with a silver car, but I really like how Alloy is dark enough that nobody can call it silver - not that it's a good or bad thing. I just don't want a silver car.

yeah, I'd be pretty sad if the had no alloy.. the color is so unique and the least color found from what I've seen...

For those who can't decide: Have a look at what color Ford uses predominantly to showcase the 2010 when it arrives, because that's a good indicator of which color they consider to be most flattering and emotionally appealing. Back in '05, it was Redfire that they trotted out most often in ads, brochures and at shows. It looked great in that color and helped me in my decision.

For 2010, I have a feeling Ford's advertising color of choice is going to be Amber Gold.

Hollywood, trust me, Amber Gold IS the feature color for the 2010 Mustang. I've been saying it for over 2 weeks now. Lets just hope they use Grabber Blue as well, cause I have a 2009 Focus in Amber Gold here at the dealership and its horrid!!

That was my whole argument: Not every color looks good on every car. Amber Gold may well be ugly on the Focus, but it may look amazing on the new Mustang. The lines of a car, how it reflects light, etc., all factor into the equation.

What colors does Ford typically use to advertise the Focus? I haven't seen any print or video that advertises it in Amber Gold...and there's probably a good reason for that.

On the other hand, my own personal opinion is that the current Focus doesn't look good in ANY color.

I don't think it will really make me any difference. Unless there is a new color that really grabs my eye, I'll probably just stick with black.

The new Focus isn't that bad. We sell them rather well. Vista Blue and Vapor looks pretty slick.

I hope your right on how it will look on the Mustang. Just remember, the shots on 2010Mustang.com are professional shots, and they can make the color look however they want. I hope the color looks better than what I have seen so far.

Possibly excepting Grabber Blue, I'm not really a fan of the Grabber colors at all...

Thumbs up

Grabber Orange I like. Blue and green not my cuppa tea.

Now, this would look great on the '10.


Chesnut



Another colour I think would work really well on the '10 is this white, used on the new MINI. It's what I'd call "old English white" and is a lovely creamy colour. Just like the MINI, the '10 will have quite a lot of black plastic around it's lower edges, and it really works well with this colour.

I was thinkiing how white would look sweet also...The Mini just proved it.
Picture a 2010 in Performance White with blacked out grille with the
glass roof... add a 85-86 style flay black hood stripe with GT etched in

You may have just decided my new color TN. I like this combo on the new M3 and GT-R
