Everyone knows redfire is the best! LOL! [sm=grinangel.gif]

If well maintained, black looks so sweet!
Ignorance is Bliss. Vista Blue Baby!

Black. But be prepared to do twice the work to keep it looking nice.

People warned me and I figured 'how hard can it be?'...

I now know: HARD.

Vista Blue ! Howevere it's just as bad black to keep clean.
Dam tree pollen is everywhere.

I kinda like Tungsten Grey. It changes colors in different light. If you slap some silver stripes on it, it would look real sweet.

I love black....but like andrew0915 says it is a lot of work to maintain!

For real... black is b*!#@ to keep clean. Swirls and constant dust are pretty much impossible to avoid. That said, WHEN Black is clean it is by far the best color out there, you just have to work like crazy.

I like the Windevil Blue or the Legend Lime. If I would have been able to afford going to a dealership If would haft to be the Legend Lime (just like the old mustang color). My 2nd choice would be the Windevil blue. My 3rd would be the color I have now the Satin Silver. Whats Vista Blue? I know the Sonic Blue but I never seen or heard of Vista blue. Did they Change the name for 06. I know there is a Sonic blue cause I remember looking at colors on the Ford website. I'd stay away from black or tungston grey (they get dirt more easer at least hear in AZ where there is lots of dust)

Also like Fazm said, a lighter color will not catch the cops eye as much. I've actually zoomed past a cop racing a DOHC Civic doing like 70. He didn't even pay me any mind. If I would have had a bright screamin yellow or a bright red im sure it would have caught his eye more.

Are you ordering an '06 or '07? If '07, you should check out the new alloy grey too. It really looks fantastic in the photos, it's very dark but not quite black.

Vista Blue replaced Sonic Blue in 06. Slightly different shade.

I like Windveil Blue the best, but Vista would definitely be my second choice.

What options are you ordering on the new stang? You should let us know so we can provide some helpful suggestions, such as:

1. Get the pony package! It's a MUST
2. Get the IUP, it's pretty nice (wish I had it)
3. Skip the Shaker 1000, you can get WAY better speakers for the extra $1200 they want.
4. The leather is kinda crappy compared to leather in most cars. I would go cloth if I could do it over again.
5. Get a Manual!!!! I got an auto and am getting bored with it (plus it will save you $1K)
6. Personally I would skip the spoiler and get a nice aftermarket ducktail if I could do it over again
These are just baesd on my experience after owning the car for a year...

Congrats on the new purchase!
