Default Ford needs better photographers

Almost all colors on the website but the sonic blue and satin silver look fugly as hell on a mustang...But then I went to a lot, and I could say that although I wouldn't want a car with some of the colors, all of the mustangs on the lot no matter the color looked much much better in person. Anyone else noticed this?

Probably the web designers fault. The web site is misleading anyway -- it says there is special financing, but you click on it and there's nothing for the Mustang. Even TV commercials advertised specials this last week that did NOT apply to the Mustang, even tho there IS a Mustang in the commercial with big 0% financing under it. Also the Deluxe and Premium is confusing -- still can't figure out what the difference is if there is any. You can add all the options you want on either. So no it's not suprising how different their marketing is compared to what's really going on.

I think the worst one is the Legend Lime. It looks nothing like it really does. Though come to think of it, I've yet to see a Lime Mustang picture get the color right.

i saw a yellow v6 in a parking lot and wasn't too fond of it in that color. i think the yellow looks better on the older body styles. i think red looks best on the 05s. not saying any other colors don't look good though.

The point of the deluxe model is to provide a base car without the upgraded stereo or leather. This allows you to add one or the other (or both) depending on your tastes. The premium is just an easy way to get both the leather and stereo upgrade without having to specify the options separately. FWIW, I happen to have a Redfire GT deluxe with the leather added. I was able to get the active alarm and the side airbags for the cost of the Shaker system, and I plan to upgrade the stereo system later.

I dunno....if I was within $400 on a Mustang GT deal, considering how hard they are to get, I think I might have at least offered to split that $400 difference with your dealer.
