Default YES FORD SUED OVER "MY COLOR"

read here. If you got one on order, better check with your dealership if you got the Interior Upgrade.

Now that is the case are we to beleive that a new customer isn't allow to purchase the new 2005 GT? I have one in mine does that mean maybe ours will be a collectors item? I enjoy switching the colors though I have settled with orange at the moment. My wife likes purple(Imagine that). I still don't know how to make the my colors? This is the one you invent yourself.

I was told that you can still order the '05 GT, just NOT the Interior Upgrade uption, that gives you the alumium interior and MY COLOR. As far as changing the MY COLOR, u must be in the vehicle with doors closed, headlights or parking lamps on. Key to the On position. Now, there are 3 buttons above the stereo. INFO, SETUP and RESET. Press SETUP until you see "Adjust My Color" then you have to individually adjust the RED, GREEN & BLUE till you get the color you want. And if Ford doesn't settle the lawsuit, then we will have Rare cars.

I was told by the dealership where I bought my car that they would not be offering the Interior Upgrade Package or the My Color anymore. That was back in November.

Been alot of talk over this on the Mustang sites, last I heard Ford was going to be OK due to his Patent expiring or some loophole in it, I don't know what to believe???

That guy is going to be mad rich by the time he's done with Ford. I would sue for as much money as possible then buy 51% stock in Ford and having the controling share and my say so in what ever goes on there. ha ha
