impressed w/the new color choices

Kudos to the decision makers regarding the new colors. Always had a strong affection for cars like the M3 and S4 which offered great performance as well as style/colors. Glad to see the new phoenix yellow/gold and laguna seca (kinda) M3 reminiscent colors on the new GT. With the right mods, these choices will allow the Mustang to look a lot more contemporary. I was worried we'd get more of the same old, same old.

The Gold is only for 2010. I wish they would carry it over since I like it so much!

I hear black primer is being added as a last minute color choice to be named "Coal"

Ford can keep the 2010, we can talk in 2011, but they can keep it for now

hopefully sunset gold is the top seller for 2010 and then ford can smarten up and say hey these people love this color, lets keep it around a few years.

me personally, i love this color and its just what this car needs for the next few years. its a great color, and if it is popular why get rid of it? hopefully things change

The new colors don't look bad, but I don't really find the overall color palette available for the 2010 to be particularly impressive.

The tactic is clear: entice people to buy '10s by offering a color they really want for only one year. Especially given that many will hold out till '11 for the 5.0L.
