Default Gotta say concerning color selection.....

the various posts are cool concerning favorite colors for the 2005 Mustang.....

But, when the various people responding attaches a photo of their ride......I have to say,

All the colors look great!!!

Some of y'all have a great eye when it comes to photography and the colors just simply stand out.

Just my 25 cents worth.
Keep 'em clean....

Later,

I agree. Color is a very personal choice. While I am not excited about the yellow or green colors, it is simply my opinion. This is my first Mustang and my first black car of any kind. I really love the look of the black paint when it's clean, but it is a pain in the a** to keep it that way. We live in the 4th home completed in a brand new subdivision and there are currently 12 other homes under construction which means the main roads are always dusty or muddy. My wife thinks I am trying to wash the black off but I can't take it when it is even a little dirty. I'm impressed with the apparant commitment of all the posters to keeping their beautiful new Mustangs (of all colors) spotless.

I would have to say that all the colors look darn nice with my least favorite being the yellow. I try to at least dust mine off every day. It will get the full bath treatment today. I usaully try to do that at least once a week. The California Duster comes in handy for the days that get a dusty. Where I work, there is a landfill across the street. Depending on the direction of the wind depends how much dust you get on your car and there is traffic in and out of there all the time.

And Scott, that's nice how you took that photo with your parking lights on.
Gotta remember to do that when I take more pics this weekend. Gotta show off my side strips, license plate frame and the little Pony valve covers I have on now!
Oh, and don't fret too much about the dirt and dust. Here in the city I live just off the 405 freeway and 1/2 mile from Wilshire and Westwood- one of the busiest intersections in the country. So the dust I get on my car (mostly on the back truck lid) is not natural but pure pollution. You know how they talk about "pounds of emmisions"? My car accumulates about an once a week!
BTW- Are y'all sure you don't like yellow?

Ya know, you are right! Rust-colored primer would look good on this car!
