New Mustang with scoop and stripes

Here is the car I ordered and canceled! Back in July I ordered this car from my local Ford dealer who told me because of the scoop and pedistal spoiler that he had no idea how long it would take to get. At the same time I found out that the new stripes did not look like what was on the Ford web site and were ugly (my opinion). So I canceled the order and bought my GT from the place in Pittsburg. Anyway, the local Ford dealer never canceled the order figuring he had an alotment of one more Mustang so he received it and today it came it. I was driving by the dealer and saw it. It is black with the scoop and spoiler AND white stripes. I have never seen this combination before on a 2010. FYI, I have uploaded photos taken with my cell phone.

I'll never understand why people spend 30k on a car and then settle for cheap looking/incomplete stripes from the dealer. If you're going to stripe it, get it done right.

I think that it would look better if the stripe continued down the front bumper. I am also not a fan of that hood scope...

Before i joined the TMS, i hated any kind of stripes on a Mustang. Now after seeing Mustangs with all kinds of stripes, they are starting to grow on me. I'm an old fart. The white stripes on the black Mustang look pretty good to me. I kind of like the BOSS style stripes (with out the BOSS word on them) better. It's starting to look like when i do order a Mustang, i will have some kinds of stripe package on it.

I almost paid a bunch-o-money to have supersnake stripes painted on my Sterling Grey '10. Backed out at the last minute. Saw a silver '10 at the dealer yesterday with aftermarket stripes...glad I backed out. Looks good, just not for me. Sort of "takes over" the entire look of the car. That's OK, if that's your thing.

I think you did the right thing Joe.

Also, you have a really nice camera in your cell phone!
