Default Can't make up my mind, Grabber Orange or Vista Blue

I'll be either ordering a mustang in the next few days or seeing if I can find one with my specs on a lot in the next few weeks... but I am having trouble deciding on the orange or the blue. If it was the sonic blue, i'd go blue in a heartbeat... but the new blue seems a bit more washed out or something, like it's not as deep. I really like the orange too and don't see many people with the orange so i was thinking maybe the orange and then a nice black stripe down the middle or something.

What do you guys think?

Blue is more subtle, and great for a daily driver. It can also be professional when going to meetings etc. But grabber orange is straight up wild, will warranty stares, and youll definately have to do white stripes.

I personally like grabber orange above all, but since Im a daily driver i'd go with blue...

JMO, but Ford missed the orange big time. It has too much yellow to it.I liked screamin yellow but not this new color; Vista Blue looks great to me, nice metallic as well. I wouldn't go stripes on any color; too many striped stangs, the ones w/o stripes and select few body mods look cleaner. JMO though, you do what makes you smile.

After seeing what happened to Vista_Blue_GT,
https://mustangforums.com/m_3256392/tm.htm

Maybe Grabber Orange would be more visible to the dolts out there on the road? I always think if anybody hits my Screaming Yellow GT the first thing I'll ask is "What do you mean you could see me???" GO is equally eyecatching.
Only downside is that little flying bugs are attracted to these bright colors, which means when washing and drying your car you have to blow then off before wiping your car! But they keep landing on it! Bees too!
Plus it needs to be cleaned with detailing clay at least 2-3 times a year, as the little specks in the clear coat il show up easier.

What'ya mean the VB doesn't seem as deep as SB? The SB is a slightly lighter color in hue(making it in painting terms) a bit more washed out, the VB is a richer, deeper more subtle color(vs the SB) and the GO is great if you can live with it for xx amount of years. I wanted a VB GT last year, but am glad I decided on the Tungsten(I'm 41 and crazy loud colors just don't do it for me anymore). I vote VB

I like my Vista Blue. Really stands out. It's metalic were the orange is solid. It's up to you.

Thanks guys,

I think you've made up my mind on the vista blue... plus they have more to pick from on the lots and I should be able to get a good deal around memorial day time frame.
