From what I understand, they pick the color and options. Anything additional that I want I pay for. Still, I have a pretty good feeling that they will select one of their new colors, if not the yet-unnamed orange color that will be a 2010 run only.

Any update on the new orange color we see on the teaser pics? Did they ever select a name for it?

I love all the bright cartoony colors. However, whether or not I could live with them on my car permanently… every day… is an entirely different matter.

It looks like the fat *** is weighing the car down!

The snake was actually on the right side of the grille in 67. And yes, the 2nd pic does look huge because of the white, non-reflective camo paint. You can see in the first pic how much the rear quarter panel has been curved in, it looks very short. The overhangs are no longer than today's Mustang, since the wheels and bumper beams are in the same spots.

Yeah I'm not as upset about them anymore. I guess all that black in the rear bumper has become my concern at the moment.

Yeah, but the snake was accompanied by the rest of the emblem and the center fogs on the older cars. And I knew they were on the right side back then. I'm just saying the snake by itself doesn't look right...on the right...
