Default RE: My opinion on the New Tungsten

Stoenr,

Man you are right that color is HOT!!!!!!!!!

I for one am glad that they discontinued Mineral gray.
Having originally ordered in the color and then after seeing it in person, noticing it had a brownish hue to it in the sun. Not at all what I thought it would look like in person.

I'm sure it looks a hell of a lot better in person, but at least its a true gray, like a graphite.

makes mw want mine now even more than before!!!!!

Ordered 5-13-05 Priority 10 Still Clean and Unscheduled
06 Gt Deluxe IUP, Tungsten, Stick

Not stirring, just asking. Would you have this same opinion if you had a different color on order?

Thats kinda hard to answer, I think I would change my order if I could.
Salesmen(not mine) has a Sonic Blue and he said he kinda wishes he waited.

I like all the colors truely. It is/was a hard decision. What made it final for me was that this color hides minor scratches and dirt better than most.
Torch Red and SB were my runners up.

I probably would. Having orignally placed my order with Mineral Gray. If Tungsten was just an added color to the's 06 and not replacing Mineral Gray, and I couldn't change my order, I would have been a little dissapointed if I received a Mineral Gray out on getting one in Tungsten instead.

But I also think Mustangs with Black are kick a$$, but like Stoenr said hard to keep clean, and Mustangs in either Red look really sharp too.

Personally, for me, Tungsten, like Mineral Gray for an 05, is the perfect color. I want some, but not TOO much flash and attention with this car. Thats just not me. I think the car itself draws a lot of attention on it own, and Tungsten is a nice, understated color, unlike lets say the yellow or blue that are eye catching on anything.

Yeah no doubt it's sharp but black is better than all the colors.

The official 2005 ford web site now has the new '06 colors added...vista blue and tungsten grey. I must say that the tungsten grey looks MUCH darker on the ford site than the pictures you have on your post. Compare the two...you will see the difference. I have an '06 on order with the Tungsten (ordered 5/26....clean/unscheduled)...regardless, I am anxious to get this vehicle...live in NJ..ordered from Flemington/Deitchman Ford who moves alot of vehicles (not sure # of mustangs)...my priority is 11.
