Default Tungsten Grey or Mineral Grey?

Can anyone out there tell me for sure if Tungsten Grey is going to replace Mineral Grey?

Mineral Grey is nice and my original choice, but Tungsten Grey is a great color, and since I have to wait for a new stang anyway, I might as well get a new model year color, but the dealership I placed my order with couldnt tell me which new colors would be replacing which. If it is replacing Mineral Grey I'll just sit back and wait for them to tell me that the color has been discontinued, and then go with the Tungsten. If not, I'd like to know early enough so that I can change my order to Tungsten when the '06 specs are realeased. Thanks.

The "05 Mustang" brochure lists Mineral Grey as an exterior color option. Where did you hear of the new grey? "C"

KandyMans got it right. Its definitly a new color for '06. What I wanted to know was if anyone out there had an inside scoop on if Tungsten Grey is going to replace Mineral Grey?

Kandyman, how where you able to order your '06 in Tungsten when Ford hasnt yet officially announced it as a new color? Or have they?
