I'm thinking Deep Impact Blue with white stripes or even a stripe delete.

I'm still not sold on that Blue. It doesn't jump out at me enough. White stripes might do the trick, but I still have to see this blue in person.

They appear to be really high quality stripes, very thick, feel like they would be pretty durable.

I think that will be a good looking color. From what I've seen of it, it appears to be close to Vista (which I have a soft spot for, obviously). For my personal taste, Sonic was too purple, and Kona was too dark.

I'm sure it would look good with white, but I'd like to see silver as well. I think it would depend on the width of the stripes on the new car. If they're as wide as the current standard stripes, I think white might be too over powering. Either would probably work if they're narrow like the PP stripes, but it would probably be silver either way for me just because I liked it so much on my last one with the blue.

Yes. Silver would be my second choice for a stripe.

There just isn't any other color for me so it's DIB by default I guess.

I don't like white on any car.
I already have a silver, red, and black mustang.
I never cared for red candy in my SHO
And I don't know what I think about grabber blue. I like the debut car but I don't know if I could live with it forever.

Plus I've never ever bought a blue car. Te kids have said this one had to be blue. Zoe even said she saw it was blue in a dream. Lol

If it was available, I'd like to have a charcoal gray color with silver stripes. That has always been one of my favorite color combos on any car.

I think Grabber Blue is one of those colors I'd be sick of after the new wore off. I've seen too many cars through the years that become almost a joke amongst car people because of an abnormal color that everybody thought was hot when it came out, but quickly lost its appeal.

Gary I'm thinking deep impact blue with a silver stripe might look nice. But stripe delete would probably do better. Cowl induction hood would set it off too.

Fudge I hate picking a car color. This is only the second car I've ever ordered. I'm still happy with the molten orange Raptor.

I do think that a grabber blue 1970 would be just as sexy now as it was then.

But so would Acapulco blue.

So hard to choose. So hard.

Silver stripe delete would be sweet.

Ive never been a fan of stripes really on anything. Dont get me wrong, they look good on some of the cars they come on, but I would never really want stripes on any car I owned.

I was thinking I'd get the stripes.

That's how I see it in my mind when I imagine it.

Maybe having silver would make slightly less bold than the white.

Plus the silver tone works better with the wheels I think.

I could always remove the stripes if I wanted.

Have all the color options come out yet? Just wondering if any surprise colors might be available.

I hope so.

Frankly the 7 colors that have been rumored are restrictive.

3 shades, 2 blues, 2 reds....

I'm thinking the DIB with silver will end up looking pretty similar to my old car...
