I was thinking it could be as dark as this:



Or it might have even more of a burgandy hue, but I would expect that there could possibly be a slight variation from what the 2010 F 150 was. This photo was far easier to photoshop than the candy red that I used last time.


Edit: I hate that carpet color. Why would any self respecting auto show use such a horrible color.

The color would go real nice with the saddle interior I think, too.

I gotta tell ya. Even the Harley Pic's, as clear as they are, do NOT do it justice. I was floored when I saw it in person while at the MCA Meeting in Dallas. I knew then I had to have it. The color changes with the light, and gosh, that metalic in her sparkles like no other. the closest I can recal was the Mystic back on the SN-95 Cobra's, but that was Green/Blue. this is Cherry/Black/Pearl all enhanced with different lighting. WE are going to LOVE IT!!!

It reminds me of "plum" on my 92 T-Bird. At night it was black, in the sun it was almost purple and normally it was a dark red.

Does anyone know how similar or different the Black Cherry Mica on the Mazda CX-7 is to Lava Red? You would have to see one in person to really see the color though. I saw one today and thought this might be as close to seeing Lava Red as I will get anytime soon.

I totally agree. I took these pictures with just under an hour till sunset on a flat panel. I can only imagine what it will look like with the sun overhead on the curves of the mustang. The metalflake looks like LED's in person

I was set to order ebony but wanted a metallic paint. It was between Kona and Lava. I really hope I made the right choice. Anyone else choose Lava? I hope it doesnt look too purple in sunlight and is dark and shiny in the shade! Post pics if anyone gets any of the stang in Lava Please Interior is Blk with cashmere accent
I tried, but the computer at the dealer would not accept the UZ code and it did come up as an option. i don't know why and neither does he. My next choice was Sterling Silver....Gonzo for 2012. So Kona Blue it was. Trouble is I think everyone and their aunt Mary is pretty much getting Kona Blue

If not I am sure you will love the Kona!

I heard that was Shaq's car (note the superman symbol in the back middle)

Here's what the new 2012 iPad app displays as lava red. Looks okay, but glad I didn't order it.

Lava Red doesn't look like a good Mustang color IMO.
