Three new colors for the 2017 MY Mustang.
Grabber Blue, Lightning Blue and White Platinum Metallic.

Still no Emberglo.

Is that all they are changing is the colors? I'm waiting for the 2017 to come out so I can upgrade to a 5.0. If that's all they are changing I may get a better deal on a 2016.

They need to do more than add colors to compete with the new Camaro.

Mustang Mama

Still no purple.

I'll have to get a white one and have it painted.

Stage_3

I'm not sure what changes there are to the actual car, but they are dropping those 3 colors I mentioned above and adding the new colors.

Mustang Mama

I'm confused. You said those were new colors.

Get black if you're going to paint the car, then you don't necessarily have to do the engine bay.

Mustang Mama

Ah I did not think of that. That is what is good about having a forum like this one.

Stage_3

Let me "rephrase". lol
Ford is dropping Guard Green, Competition Orange and Deep Impact Blue on the Mustang for the new colors; Lightning Blue, Grabber Blue and White Platinum Metallic.
Too bad. I think the CO and the DIB look killer on the S550 body style.

Mustang Mama

Ah, it makes sense now. I liked the CO. The guard green looked to much like grey. Never been a big fan of DIB but I have not seen it yet in person out in the wild. I've seen all of the other colors except for CO. Saw one on the dealer lot last year. It was PP. I was in love.

I like the grabber blue, curious to see how it will look on the s550. Lightning blue sounds interesting as does the WPM, even though I'm not a fan of white.

I think a deeper darker green would look good on this body style. I'm still jonesing for purple. It could be a special order color. lol

Rather B.Blown

That sucks, I think Guard is the best color they offer on this car.

Stage_3

Sorry for the confusion. lol
I like the almost all the colors on the S550 cars. That body style really grew on me!

Know what's funny Lee?
I saw some photos of the GG in the sunlight and it looks great! I didn't like it at first, but it's not that bad.

I disliked Guard until I saw it up close and personal. On-line color charts do not do that color justice at all.

Mustang needs a proper dark metallic green, and I hope they're saving it for a future Bullitt.

But more importantly, forget this pearl white crap. Bring back Wimbledon White as a standard production color.

Stage_3

Yes,
Yes,
and yes!

maverick1125

Ford already uses the White Platinum Metallic on other cars like the hi-end Escape.

Stage_3

Coming soon for the S550.

esfkotaro

That sucks...Guard was the only color I actually loved on the S550. The rest were just meh to me.

So I went and looked them up...
Grabber Blue
Shadow Black
Triple Yellow
Magnetic Grey
Lightning Blue
Race Red
Ruby Red
White Platinum
Ingot Silver
Oxford White

So, arranged in orders of colors we have:
Black
Gray
Silver
Blue
Blue
Red
Red
Yellow
White
White


Total yawn fest of color diversity. Especially considering the Oscar uproar on inclusion.

Where's the orange? The green? The purple? Copper, Gold?

And of course, these exciting interior colors:

Ebony
Ceramic (Grey)
Dark Saddle (Tan)
Redline (Red) (Premium/Premier with color accent)
And some stitching colors here and there.

Very disappointing, to be honest, although there are red seats, so that's nice.

Mustang Mama

No worries. The body style has really grown on me too. I want one but I'm also emotionally attached to my 13. Another color I like and think may look good is a different shade of orange. We bought our daughter a 2013 Toyota Corolla. The color is Hot Lava. It's a, hmm, rusty orange color. I've seen a similiar color on other cars. I played around with the Mustang customizer again. Something like this:
