and I didn't like it as much as I thought I would. It's a bit pale. They definitely could have made it more brilliant.

I saw my first GO Mustang the other day myself. At first I thought it was Screaming Yellow with a layer of dust on it. Much lighter, more yellow and less orange than I expected. Not a bad looking color, just not what I had expected from pics.

I've seen one every day for the past 5 weeks, It's a trip, Everywhere I look I see this car, It's out my front, side & rear windows. When ever I park It's right there next to where I get out. Bout the sharpest color I've ever seen. Just Kiddin & Razzin ya'll. But see it next to a Yellow car of any type & its pretty orange. Just had to chime in.

I'm not saying that I dislike it. I would like it even better if it jumped out more like the screaming yellow.

Let the comparisons begin. (She won't scream... until you 'grabber'...)

Funny story if you don't mind the long read...

I had a '95 Canary Yellow GT Vert (back in those days there were no yellow cars and back then it was a GT only color). One day me and the spouse head off to work. She is 3 mins behind me. After having the yellow for a while, I would notice any other car yellow on the road. On a four lane divided highway, it snowed overnight and the streets are wet but not nasty. Coming towards me is a yellow car of some unknown make and model. I guess he had the same problem that I did and noticed yellow cars too. I see in my rear view mirror this guy (shortly after passing me) has lost control of his vehicle, is moving down a 20% grade towards the cars behind me (going the opposite direction). He slams into someone head on behind me, but I know that my wife is too far behind me for it to be her car. Then I think "Crap, she's going to see a twisted yellow hunk of metal and think that I was in that crash". So at the next red light, I do a bat turn (180) and wave to her on the way back (no cell phones in those days). OK, so it wasn't really funny, but I don't think that anyone was hurt too seriously in that wreck...

Smart move. That was good thinking on your part. I think our shade of orange is even more unique than yellow (counting ALL makes of cars). But you have the cell phone now, so... save your gas money!

Here's another shot for nonsensez9 in Canada. They must have funky sunlight up there because this baby pops!
