I too had a tough decision with the color. So what did I do? I polled every woman that I know. Every single one said black. Every. Single. One.

For what that's worth...

Another vote for Kona Blue! There are really too many black Mustangs on the road already.

Really, the Kona is not that hard to keep clean. I use a california duster and a car detailer in between washes. I actually had a neighbor ask me how I keep it so clean. I live near Daytona and it is frickin hot and sunny every day. I usually use the duster during the day...takes about 3 minutes to dust the entire car....then if it looks like anything heavy (bugs and whatnot) i use the the detailer. And one other little trick, I wash my car in the evening when its not so hot. That way the soap won't dry before I get to it.
When I got my car, I could have any color easily since I was working at a ford dealership. The black ones do look stunning when clean for sure. Another color was the Lava Red. Might be something to check out when you are looking. Almost black in color until the sun hits it. That would be unique.

I would go black IF and ONLY IF you have a garage to keep her in. Black is a B to keep clean if it is stored outside.

I love my kona, the fact that its different depending on the light makes it awesome. I was in the same situation you are in. I mostly went with kona because my last 3 cars were black and I was never more angry than looking at a black car after a good rain, you would think it was raining dirt by looking at the car. Kona is still dark enough you can see some of it, but its not nearly as bad.

Black is sexy though, its a tough call.

while a clean black is great, a clean kona is equally badass imo.
and might as well forget about maintenance difference, both show every little smudge, swirl, and spot
personally i think the kona is better in sunlight (then again im biased) and at night it might as well be black.

and plz for the sake of humanity dont put underglow on...
