Grabber Blue stands out!
There I was minding my own business and out of my peripheral vision comes this 2010 Grabber Blue GT. . . HOLY CRAP that thing stands out in an otherwise earth-tone filled background.

I'm not a big fan of skittle-colored cars but I do admire the uniqueness of this one.

Snopes has an article debunking the myth that red cars get more tickets.

LOL

I was going back and forth between Grabber, Kona & Sterling until one of my friends told me they forbid me from getting the smurf car (their words not mine )

I still think the car looks hella good in the color though, but I'll take the safe route and go with Kona, but much respect to those Grabber blue owners! They are still bad azz lookin' rides

My family called it "guido blue". Now it's green and grabber blue which are forbidden colors.

I actually like that green on THAT car. Not on a Mustang though. If I'm going to buy a "toy" car, I don't mind having a toy color.

I really like Grabber blue combined with another color. If the car is all grabber blue that is too much. However, with white or black stripes it looks hot.

Precisely why getting the glass roof was a must for me. The extra black on the roof helps to break up the sea of grabber

If I ever pursue a 2010+ Stang it will be Grabber Blue, I've loved that color since the first time I saw it!

I think the new "thin" GT500 stripes look like an afterthought. "Hey, we've done wide double stripes and we've done a big single stripe. We can't possibly leave it without stripes. Let's leave parallel bicycle tire stripes on the hood of the car!"

Oh please. You got the Glass Roof so you could take those SoCal hotties out on late night drives. "Look babe, aren't the stars pretty??"

Wheels: check. Back filler panel: check. Hood "side" stripes: check. Rear wing: not check. Is that for a high-lift jack?

Good looking car though -- nice combination you've put together.
