It's the all-American color combo!

I would never be able to afford a car at this price. If i could, in time i believe the stripes would grow on me like the rear-end of the 2010 Mustang did after a few weeks. I also didn't like the V-6 Pony Package wheels, but after seeing several pictures and video's of the wheels, i really like them and can't wait for my Mustang. If it will ever leave 'Ramp 51' LOL!!!

Just a side note in general.

I don't think styling is 'right' if it has to 'grow' on you. While some have grown to like the '10/11 rear end, many have not and are firmly entrenched against it (and ticked at Ford). Great styling is not controversial.

Whereas when I first saw Bullitt, I had to try and pull one off. I had no business spending 30k at the time but I was/am mesmerized and immediately starting working my creative financing magic. Credit card in hand, within 3 weeks of first seeing one (on the internet), I was ordering one to be built just for me on 12.6.07. I had never even driven a Mustang in my life. Never drove the B until I had signed the papers and it was mine.

That's what good styling (& features) does. Just like Gen 1 did that fateful day on 4.17 46 years ago.
People had to have one.

I have to disagree with you on this one. There are both things that you immediately want and are drawn to, and there are others that you see, and after several different perspectives and more time around them, you like them. Think of it as a snowball rolling down a hill. If it peaks your interest to start, and then you see it more and more and begin to like it, it grows. Nothing wrong with either way of liking something. Sometimes, letting it grow on you means that it's a more practical way of liking things. Just my $.02

Same here...I was going to go stripe delete but thought the stripes on the seats were essential. Should be under $500 to have the stripes replaced. Mitch

Hmmm I like the way the stripe looks myself. In truth, they could lose the stripe on the Quarter-panel and just have GT500 there IMO.

+1 for ECI

Beautiful car - if I had an extra $20K I would have got this one instead of the 2011 GT. Black with red stripes, my favourite color combo by far.
