Color help?

I will be ordering a 2013 the day the price list comes out but i can not decided on a color.
I have narrowed it down to black/sterling gray and maybe white, anyone got any pic of the SG and Black(2013) next to each other? (i have a concern that black will be to close to the murdered out look)

What color would you get if you were ordering again?

Side note: I will be getting aftermarket wheels either black or gunmetal.

If I had to choose between those colors, SG with Red interior is just awesome. I do love black but just dont like being too stealthy, hence me owning a grabber blue. One thing I like about white is its like a canvas for different colored stripes. White with GB stripes, white with Red stripes, etc. etc.

In the end its what YOU will be happy to walk up to every day. I smile every time I walk up to my girl. Definitely pick something that you will never second guess in the future.

Black looks great but is a b*tch to keep clean..

Am biased, but I really like the SG - add the gunmetal or Brembo wheels and it's a great look, plus it doesn't show dirt nearly as much as a black car...

I would stay away from black, always seems to look dirty. If I were to order again right now, it would be sterling grey. Don't get me wrong I friggin love my Kona blue when she's all washed and waxed, but that's the trouble, like black you have to constantly wash it

A car like the mustang is awesome and it demands attention, so its has to be a color that screams out, look at me. Look at my hotness. White on a sports car is not where you want to be. White is not hot on a sports car. No disrespect to the mustang owners with white but not for a sports car. Black, candy red, Kona blue or its replacement , grabber blue, Silver maybe.

Black! Although I do really like Sterling Gray too - if it was available when I ordered mine it would have been a tougher decision for me . . .

IMO, black just doesnt look right on the '13. The plastic cladding looks brighter than the color of the car and thats not good. Besides the obvious SG, red, and diblue look great.

I was ready to order a 13 Boss but after being told 20k and my 12 is what it would take. I put it on hold, trade in value on mine 25k?
they are crazy? I traded a 010 Camaro SS/RS two years old on the car I have now and was allowed 30k total trade, difference including tax and tags was around 6 k

that's a tough question.... hmmm... If I were to order a 2013 now, I have to admit, I'm a little biased, so I'd go for Deep Impact Blue, as it's the closest to Kona. But a very close 2nd place tie would be Black and Sterling Gray.

If I had to do it all over again, I'd still go with Race Red, or perhaps Red Candy. They both are so hot and in your face.

lol... thx fly. I love grabber blue too, but I just came from a pearl white Z, so I didn't want another light color. Maybe I should buy another 5.0 so I can drive a different one depending on mood.

p.s. lets see some pics of Emma!!!!!!

I've always liked red mustangs but race red looks like orange sometimes in the sun. Or is it just me?

Race red does sometimes take on a little orange. My wife wanted Candy Red which changes color with different light.

Haha I will I will. She's been waiting for some good pics to be taken of her.

I came from a black 06 v6 so I sort of had to stand out this time.

Thanks everyone for the input I am leaning towards SG,a problem is that I am 18 equaling all insurance companies hate me for some reason .With flashy colors drawing the amount of attention that they do is a bad combo.

Side note: **** that blue is sexy!!!
