If you look at all three pics, the rear end looks oddly higher in one (last). I think the angle of the pic has a lot to do with it. The side scoops look pretty good from the front, but not so good from the back, and less than that from the side. Grille looks okay, but I can see it black also. Love the 'GT' mark in the wheels. I think folks will get used to the pedestal as they see it more. And I don't know about anybody else, but I really like the CS faux gas cap. Nothing on the car makes it anything less than beautiful to me.

Man the side stripe looks good in white. personal preference on the spoiler. I like it a lot better than the one on my 05 or the flat one Ive seen on years after.

Performance white is nice but GM and Honda offer a paint job called, if I remember correctly, "pearl white". The paint is a white/silver metallic with clearcoat that is incredible. Depending on the sun, it is white or a light silver metallic. My wife has that paint job on her Honda and it is beautiful. If Ford had that.........

I don't think it's that, it's just that I wussed out of asking.


Please don't hurt me.

I'm not normally fond of white, but it looks pretty good. I'd still pull the side scoops off, since those look like an afterthought.

Ford does have something like that on the Taurus and others (and Lincolns I think). Platinum white maybe? My FIL's Taurus is that color. It's cool to me that it almost looks like a matte finish. Shiny, but not 'deep' if that makes any sense. It's a 'touch me' color.

Mazda offers a Crystal White Pearl, which has hints of white and silver fleck in it. Very sharp when cleaned up. It would look nice on a Mustang.

I agree on the side scoops, doesn't work, at least for a white one. It does look vaguely jacked up oddly enough, but I am kinda grateful I kept the standard spoiler instead of going for a Pedestal. It looks good from some angles, but not others, and it does have a rather steep rise in the back. I think it would look better with HIDs also, but take what I say with a grain of salt, I'm really not a fan of white on any car, but that's just me.

You do realize that is NOT a 2011 right?

If it's still on the lot, I'll do that today. If not, I'll see if they have a V6 model I can test drive.

Even KIA offers a similar paint mix.

Look at the new 2011 GT/CS side stripes! They are now a different design on each side. Slap the person that approved these!! Change and newer layouts are not always a better way to go. Of those two new CS stripes, I do prefer the left side one a little bit better. Comments? CalStang
