I have a 2005 Mineral Grey Metallic V6 that I am very happy with but was thinking of buying a 2006 on sale. I was planning on getting a Tungsten Grey as it is not that much different. What does the new 2007 Alloy look like? Any pictures? I like the Grabber Orange from the pictures I have seen on the forum. This one horse town will not see a 2007 for a few months.

Thanks

Why? Nothing's changed other than colors. It would be crazy to take the depreciation hit just to buy a newer, unchanged car. I could see if you were upgrading to a GT.

The new Orange isn't the same Competition Orange they put on the 03/04's is it?

I bought the 2005 at a good price and then found out about the Pony package on the 2006 cars. The prices on the 2006 cars are very good and Ford has 0 % interest for 36 months. I could trade my 2005 with 20,000 miles for a new new 2006 for about $40 a month. I really love the Mineral Grey and would like to get a similar color.

Nice looking car! Where did you get your lowering springs? Did you install them yourself or have it done? In your opinion what would be a fair price for the installation?

Ah yes, the '05 to '07 swap.....I have run the numbers many times myself. I wouldn't recommend it unless you plan on "upgrading" somehow, i.e: going to a GT or a vert. Otherwise, you're basically throwing away thousands of dollars away in depreciation since the car loses the most value in the first year (and the second most in the second year). So unless it's a big change that's going to make you much happier, I would have a hard time justifying it.

No its a new color, calling it Grabber Orange... looks like a giant pupkin to me. [:'(]
