I love the aggressive front look of the new stang (rear...not sold on it yet)...but I don't care for that " grabber blue"...looks too powdery blue and too gawdy for me (not a strong color for a muscle car)...

I guess you have never seen the 1970 Mach 1. According to the Ford Performance Engineers its the same color as Grabber Blue.

I was also told by many people that my Windveil Blue was too light for a muscle car. I had a black GT owner tell me it was a girl color....yours is the same color as mine and I am sure you don't think it's a girl color or too light for a muscle car right?..so everyone has there own opinion of what color looks best on a muscle car. My first choice is the Grabber Blue but I probably won't get it because it is the new "belly button" color...everyone it seems is gonna have one.

That's probably one of the reasons cars are made in more than 1 color, (unlike Model T). I ordered mine in candy red not only because I like the color but it also gives you the option to have brick red seats. When you order grabber blue the only option of the interior is charcoal which I don't like.

When I think of classic muscle cars, Grabber Blue pops out in my mind almost immediately. It is not a girly color by any stretch of the imagination. I think it is one of the best. I would love a Grabber Blue GT.

They should offer a blackout/stripe appearance package on the 2010's. Grabber blue is kind of like Grabber Orange.....looks much better with some blackout trim to break up the color. Just like the 69/70 Boss/Mach 1 Mustangs.

There is a grabber blue at my uncle's dealership.
They put boss stripes on it in black without the word BOSS and it looks great with that color.

As for the body design. I like 2005-2009's much better.

As i said..it wasn't considered considered girly way back in 1970 when it was all dressed out on the Mach1. U need not go to the big Ford carshows so you can avoid all those big horsepower Grabber Blue Mach1s
