IS SONIC BLUE that color the 2004 TERMINATORS (Cobras) had which it would change different shade of Blue/Green under different angles of light? If not, then what color was that anyways? Probably one of the coolest colors Ford ever put out...

No, that is Mystichrome.

That stuff is too "1990s" for me.

It's a "sophisticated" color that, in my opinion, shows the lines of the sheetmetal very well.

Helps you blend in with traffic too. Po Po is easily attracted to Grabber Blue and bright Reds, among others. I like driving in Ninja mode.

Agreed. The color when properly detailed has a ton of depth. It pops a lot more than silver does IMO.

It probably differs location to location, but I've never had an issue with flashy cars. Bright blue Corvettes, Torch Red 03 Cobra with about the loudest exhaust imaginable.

I don't drive like a douche on public roads though either. I think that's the key really.

Sterling Grey was my second choice after Kona when the dealership was searching for a car for me. I think both of those colors look best with the black plastic on the bottom of the new Stangs. Plus like someone said the metallic really looks nice in the sun.

Damnit... now I need to sit back and talk myself out of trading up to a '12. A blue like Sonic Blue is the color I've been wanting my 'Stang in since I was 16. GB was too smurfy in my eyes, and Kona too dark.

...crossing my fingers Sonic Blue stays for good! Definitely want it for my next pony in the future.

I second that. You can add cop magnet yellow to that list. Part of the reason I went with silver was to not stand out TOO much in general.

I love Sonic Blue, wish I was able to get my Cobra that color. Now they should bring back Screaming Yellow and perhaps make Highland Green a regular production color.

I wonder why they added colors but did not drop any. As much as I like Sonic Blue it is similar to Kona Blue... 3 different shades of blue yet no Green? and Competition Orange is Boss specific.... c'mon Ford... make these colors available for all Mustangs.

I love Sonic purple

Honestly that would be one of the colours I'd be all over if LavaRed wasn't an option.

I hope Ford takes your advice. If it does I'll have to add you to my Christmas list.

Too much purple in the Sonic Blue for me...bring back Azure Blue, since there is already Kona for a dark metallic on the lineup!
